Used ORBOTECH Discovery 8 #9003037 for sale

ORBOTECH Discovery 8 PC Board Test Equipment is a tool designed to offer comprehensive and accurate testing of printed circuit boards (PCBs). It offers significant improvements in production process efficiency and accuracy compared to conventional testing methods. Discovery 8 is equipped with an advanced vision-based scanner, which is able to detect fine details in the PCB layout during a single scan. This ensures that all design requirements are captured and validated in the first pass. The use of a high-resolution camera also helps to detect false positives and defects in components or wiring, thus ensuring high yield rates. The scanner is supported by multiple test measuring systems (TMS) to measure the performance of electrical components. Each TMS can be customized to measure voltage, current, resistance, and other parameters. The collected data is compared against the specifications set during the design process, and any mismatches are flagged for corrective action. The Discover 8 also features a patented multiple-zone inspection system, which detects open/short faults in wiring, incorrect power supply connections, and missing components. This unit is especially useful in detecting erroneous board routings, which often lead to failure after the board is assembled. With this inspection machine, ORBOTECH Discovery 8 reduces the probability of a faulty board passing a QC test and eventually ending up with a customer. Additionally, the Discover 8 supports multi-board testing, which helps to improve production throughput. Multiple boards can be tested in parallel, allowing the tester to switch between boards much faster than traditional methods. This helps to reduce the overall testing time and hence the total cost of the PCB production process. To top it off, Discovery 8 offers an integrated defect recognition tool. This asset is programmed to recognize any unusual patterns or discontinuities that may indicate a manufacturing defect. It can identify deviations even on the most complex designs, so the tester can take the necessary corrective action before the board is shipped off for delivery. Overall, ORBOTECH Discovery 8 offers a reliable and comprehensive testing solution for fast-paced PCB production. Its advanced features and integrated systems make it an ideal choice for PCB manufacturing facilities and designers alike.
