Scorpion Technologies Double-Sided Flying Prober

The system has been designed to test assembled boards with both mixed technology and surface mount designs. The Flying Scorpion is highly innovative and based on a totally new technical approach. With patented independent 3 axis 'joystick probes', it is possible to contact test points that cannot be reached using conventional moving probers on boards as large as 1005mm x 650 mm.
Moreover, for components that cannot be electrically tested, the system features double-sided optical inspection to yet further enhance fault coverage.

The result is fast turn-on time with uncompromised high fault coverage, virtually regardless of the board technology.

Additionally, if you have high volume products that need bed-of-nails testing, test programs developed on the Flying Scorpion run directly on the company's high speed Scorpion MDA with no programming reinvestment.
