Service — Testing
PCB test and inspection matched to the board’s actual risk
AOI for what you can see, X-ray for what you can’t, flying probe for connectivity and your system test for function.
Mirtec AI 3DAOI for placement and solder
Nicolet 2DX-ray for hidden BGA joints
Nikon 3DVolumetric joint inspection
TakayaFlying probe, no fixture needed
Before / afterDocumented BGA X-ray workflow
Your test planCustomer-defined system test
Why teams choose us
The method matches the defect
Visible joints get AOI, hidden joints get X-ray and connectivity gets flying probe. You don’t pay for coverage the board doesn’t need
No fixture needed on prototypes
Takaya flying probe tests low-volume boards without fixture cost or lead time
Records before release
Quality won’t ship a board until every required inspection record is complete
Capabilities
| Method | Equipment | Finds |
|---|---|---|
| 3D AOI | Mirtec AI | Missing, misplaced and wrong-polarity parts; visible solder defects |
| 2D X-ray | Nicolet | BGA shorts and voids |
| 3D X-ray | Nikon | Hidden-joint quality, viewed volumetrically |
| Flying probe | Takaya | Opens, shorts and wrong values |
| System test | Customer-defined | Board function against your limits |
How it works
Agree on what “pass” means before the first board is built.
Send test inputsBoard data, risk areas, limits, and any fixtures or firmware
Map risks to methodsAOI, X-ray, flying probe or system test for each risk area
Define acceptanceCoverage, limits, sample size and report format
Test and dispositionFailures are logged and routed. Reworked units are retested
ReleaseComplete records ship with the boards
Built for
You can’t see the joints that matter
Hidden solder under BGAs doesn’t show on a camera we pick the method that does
You’re testing a handful of boards and a fixture would cost more than the build
We size the test to the run not the other way around
Your records get audited
Medical or defense the paperwork has to hold up ISO 13485 records controlled release and ITAR-controlled test data and assets
Frequently asked questions
Which systems do you run?
Mirtec AI 3D AOI, Nicolet 2D X-ray, Nikon 3D X-ray and Takaya flying probe
Can you inspect BGA joints?
Yes. We use 2D and 3D X-ray, with before/after images on request
Can you run our functional test?
Yes. The split between your assets and ours is defined in the quote
What report will I get?
One scoped to your program: images, results, serial traceability and failure logs
