Single-Axis concept versus Multi-Axis Flatbed
In almost all flying probes, the test heads move on rails on single axis. This means that if there are several heads in one system, they are extremely restricted. To reach a certain position, all heads must be pulled back to make room for one head so that it can move to that position. With the Condor Flying Probe there are no restrictions on the movement of the test heads because ours really “fly” on a flatbed of multi-axis principle linear motion. Each head can fly autonomously to its target position, which must be tested. The heads move on an air cushions smoothly and this guarantees an almost maintenance-free system.
