The SRM XD246 is a semiconductor test handler manufactured by SRM Integration. It is a turret-type test handler and a key piece of automated equipment in the semiconductor packaging and testing process.Manufacturer: SRM Integration
Company Background: Founded in Penang, Malaysia in 1996, SRM Integration is one of the world's leading suppliers of semiconductor test handlers.
Core Business: Focuses on designing and manufacturing high-speed IC test handlers, providing one-stop solutions from test handling, marking, visual inspection to sorting and tape-and-reeling.
Working Principle and Functions: In the semiconductor manufacturing process, test handlers like the SRM XD246 act as both "quality inspectors" and "classifiers." Its core workflow is as follows:
Automated Transfer: Through a high-speed turret design, it quickly and accurately transfers the chip under test (IC) from the inlet to the testing station.
Electrical Testing: Connects the chip's pins to the tester for performance and functional testing.
Sorting and Receiving: Based on test results (good or defective), chips are automatically sorted into different categories and finally packaged into carrier tapes and reels.
Key Features and Capabilities
High Speed and Versatility: As a high-speed test and sorting machine, it can efficiently process large volumes of chips. Its integrated 6-sided appearance inspection (AOI) function can check for chip appearance defects before and after testing.
Precision and Intelligence: The equipment boasts 95% accurate navigation. New models may also incorporate AI technology to improve inspection accuracy and efficiency.
Durability and Adaptability: Rugged design capable of withstanding harsh industrial environments with extreme temperatures, humidity, and dust.
Intelligent Safety: Equipped with advanced safety features such as obstacle detectors, laser scanners, and ultrasonic systems.
Flexible Communication: Supports multiple communication methods including Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, facilitating remote monitoring, maintenance, and control.
Markets and Applications: The SRM XD246 primarily serves the chip packaging and testing stages in the automotive electronics (especially autonomous driving/automotive semiconductors), consumer electronics, and communications sectors.
In the market, SRM Integration is widely recognized as one of the leading manufacturers in the global semiconductor test and sorting machine field, competing with companies such as EXIS TECH and Boston Semi Equipment.
In summary, the SRM XD246 is a technologically advanced and reliable semiconductor test and sorting machine, demonstrating SRM Integration's technological strength in the field of high-speed turret sorters. Through high-speed, high-precision automated testing and sorting, it plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality of chips leaving the factory.
