The TRI TR518 SII INLINE adds automated electrical defect testing to the PCB production line. Its MDA platform checks electrical characteristics through a test fixture, complementing optical inspection with measurements that a camera cannot provide.
The system supports up to 2,496 analog test points and includes resistance, inductance and capacitance measurement capability. Optional TestJet hardware extends coverage to vectorless open-circuit detection where the board and fixture support it.
A fully electric handling platform removes the need for compressed air, while SMEMA compatibility supports connection to adjacent line equipment. Standard board handling accommodates PCBs up to 450 × 300 mm, with a larger-board option available.
For buyers replacing a manually loaded test station, the TR518 SII INLINE offers an automated board-flow arrangement. We discuss fixture requirements and test-point access alongside the machine configuration, since electrical coverage depends on the board design as well as the tester.
