Flying Probe Testers Upgrades
Our Equipment services include a range of options and upgrades for both hardware and software.
4 Wire Kelvin Upgrades for Flying Probes
The 4 Wire Kelvin Test is used for testing very small resistance of Interconnect Via Hole (IVH) and through holes. It can measure low resistance correctly without being affected by test lead or contact resistance.

Inductance Measurement Upgrades for Flying Probes
The Inductance Measurement option allows the Flying Probe to measure active inductance (coils) on the PCB. This requires a software option upgrade and an additional measurement meter to provide the measurements.
Tolerance ±5%
Upgrade to the Loc8 Lite Specification
Gardien's unique upgrade package for Speedy580, 588 and Pegasus flying probe test systems is the only one available in the market. The upgrade package enables you to extend the life of equipment while increasing technology capabilities with minimal investment.
Upgrade your existing equipment to achieve the following Loc8 Lite specification:
4 test probes ( 2 front / 2 back)
Z-Axis probes with soft touch (no pad markings)
Fully automatic camera alignment for easy and faster board registration
Pneumatic Stretch frame: For testing thin core, flex and inner layers
Quick frame: Used for rigid PCBs - More efficient loading and un-loading of boards
User friendly, high-speed software licensed specifically by Gardien
Test floor integration with all leading Universal Grid system suppliers
Direct link to the Acceler8® for Test Capture
Please note: Old electronics will be removed and replaced with new SCB4, McAVR, Probeelectronic and new Softtouch probes. The existing motion system will be serviced but not replaced.
Upgrades can be performed on-site reducing downtime and minimising disruption to your business.
Insulation Resistance Test Software
The Insulation Resistance (IR) option allows the Isolation Test at a pre-determined Voltage while screening against a pre-determined Isolation Resistance value. This option requires a software license upgrade.
Insulation Resistance to 1 Giga Ohm
Tolerance ±5%
Embedded Resistor Test Software
Embedded Resistance is one of the important technologies adopted in the miniaturization of PCBs. Our Software upgrade enables embedded resistor testing with the following specification:
Series/parallel networks
Resistors from 1ohm up to 10 Mohm
Tolerance ±5%
Embedded Capacitor Test Software
The Embedded Capacitor option allows the test and measurement of embedded capacitors. This option requires a software license upgrade.
Series/parallel networks
Tolerance ±5%
Vacuum Plate Option
We offer the option to add a Vacuum plate:
When purchasing a Flying Probe test System from Gardien you have the option to purchase the Vacuum plate and pump with the machine.
Size: 560x480mm

Test Floor Integration (TFI) / Data Logging Software
By choosing the TFI Software option we can make Gardien G50 and G60 Flying Probes compatible with:
Acceler8
Mania Equipment
C.L.TECH Equipment
TFI shares data seamlessly between equipment allowing your Flying Probe to conduct a full resistive test, automatically verifying all faults contained in the data log file created during grid testing. For more detailed information about the TFI process click here
