Used LPKF ProtoPrint S #9182768 for sale

LPKF ProtoPrint S is a PCB (Printed Circuit Board) Test Equipment which facilitates the checking, testing, and fault-finding of printed circuit boards. The system offers a comprehensive suite of features that enable users to identify and analyze issues that could potentially disrupt a PCB's functionality. The computer-aided functional testing process starts with a circuit board drawing; this is used to create a set of test points which can be used to identify areas for testing, as well as to simulate potential causes and sources of errors within the board. The unit allows for intelligent 'what-if' machine analysis, with the user able to define realistic test scenarios. Once the test points are created, the tool provides a number of useful features designed to aid in testing the board. This includes ProtoPrint S's 'Test Point Analyzer', a feature which uses analog circuit simulation to check for expected signal levels at any given test point. This feature also allows the user to analyze current and resistance values, and to build specialized voltage/current profiles. The asset also allows for the identification of potential defects in a board by employing its 'Design Analysis Mode'. This method utilises connectivity and thermal imaging to detect possible issues such as incorrect component placement, trace fatigue, open circuits, shorts and other potential errors. Prototypes can also be re-designed using the 'PCB Design' feature which provides assistance with standard industry formats such as Gerber and Eurocircuits. LPKF ProtoPrint S further offers a wide range of connectivity options which allow for straightforward transferring of circuit board data between the model and other tools. This includes USB 2.0, serial, and Ethernet connections. With its large display, it can also be used as an interactive tool for controlling, modifying and validating a board. All these features enable ProtoPrint S to offer an easy-to-use solution for checking and validating circuit boards. Its wide-ranging test analysis capability, along with its full connectivity features, makes LPKF ProtoPrint S an indispensable tool for ensuring the quality and reliability of printed circuit boards.
