Full Test Line Solution for Reel to Reel Market
- The Rapid H4 Flex is the only Flying Probe on the market able to test the Flex-PCB produced in a big reel.
- In order to minimize the cost and increase the productivity, some high-volume Flex-PCBs manufacturers have installed lines specifically intended for the production of circuits in continuous reel web (reel to reel).
System Structure
The whole system is structured in 3 main parts listed below.
Load Area: It is characterized by a primary unwinder with roll-carrier spindle followed by a pulling unit with air brake.
Test Area: The lack of structural rigidity of FLEX-PCBs requires the use of a general purpose vacuum table. For this reason, the RAPID H4 FLEX features a vacuum tray installed into the work area and a vacuum pump/blower. Moreover, the tester is equipped with a stamper to automatically mark the bad foil after the test procedures.
Unload Area: It is characterized by a pulling unit with air brake for controlled feeding of materials and by an output assembly with aligner and primary winder with 3” and 6” roll-carrier spindle.
