SPEA Board Handling

SPEA Board Handling

SPEA Board Handling – Minimized footprint, maximum effectiveness

With SPEA’s board handling system, you benefit from a state-of-the-art solution that combines efficiency and precision in a compact space. Fully automated transport of PCBs between the rack and tester minimizes manual intervention, shortens process times, and significantly increases the productivity of your production. The system impresses with its reliable assembly handling, short cycle times, and optimal use of available production space—ideal for modern, automated test environments.

Fully compatible—automated board handling for all inline-capable SPEA testers

The automated board handling system, developed and produced by SPEA, enables the automatic loading of assemblies and components from rack to tester and from tester to rack.

The handling modules are fully compatible with all inline-capable SPEA test systems – both existing and new systems. The use of SPEA modules ensures absolute compatibility between handling and tester, and therefore reliable production. Our customer service offers you professional support during installation and beyond.

Modular handling equipment with a small footprint

The automated board handling system from SPEA is characterized by a compact, modular architecture and thus offers a cost-effective system with a small footprint.

The modular architecture allows you to configure your handling system to suit your needs. The modules can be added, exchanged or moved within the same or in other test cells to change the conveying path (pass-back, pass-through or mixed). This means you are optimally equipped for every requirement in current or future production.

All modules of the SPEA handling system require only 1/3 of the floor space of conventional handling segments. The smallest module has a footprint of just 0.7 square meters. A typical pass-through configuration takes up just 1.31 square meters of space – compared to 3.38 square meters for conventional automation solutions.

Rack positioning can be carried out manually or automatically in various ways, e.g. with AGVs, robots, conveyor belts or local magazine buffers. The rack positioning height is programmable to simplify operating procedures or to set the correct height for operation with robots or AGVs.

SPEA Board Handling – Designed for the future of testing

The handling of the assembly is completely controlled by the SPEA tester software. Communication between the tester and LAN via the Ethernet TCP/IP interface utilizes the benefits of Industry 4.0: production and sensor data can be transferred to big data systems for predictive maintenance.

The SPEA handling system consists of durable, maintenance-free modules to ensure operational reliability over a long period of time. The sensors used in combination with the software used ensure that all steps are carried out in a fully controlled manner.

Full integration with SPEA tester and software

Installation of the SPEA handling modules is professional and simple: they simply need to be connected to the power supply and the communication interfaces of the tester (SMEM, Hermes, TCP/IP) – that’s it! The tester software contains all the necessary drivers for controlling automated handling.

The desired operating mode of the handling system (e.g. pass-through or pass-back) can be selected directly in the test program, so that no additional operating effort is required when changing products.

The sorting of the assemblies can also be defined directly in the test program. For example, with pass-fail sorting in the same magazine, in separate magazines or in permanently assigned magazine slots.
