Collaborative Robotics Test Systems
Collaborative Robotics – Test Systems Integration
Intrinsic Quality has recently partnered with Brooks Automation as a systems integrator. Together, our goal is to innovate automated testing for electronics manufacturers. By integrating Brooks PreciseFlex™ and IntelliGuide™ Vision robots with Intrinsic Quality’s robust test systems, we can enhance efficiency and precision in automated testing. This result will have an impact on minimizing downtime, reducing costs and increasing quality while boosting overall performance.

Collaborative Robotics Test Applications
With IQ’s Collaborative Robot integration, your application will save test-time and capital expenditure, and reduce the potential for errors and damage caused by excessive board or device handling.
The PreciseFlex™ robot effortlessly chooses the next board from the carousel, loads the DUT into the fixture, where testing takes place. Our custom test systems then tests the board, recording test data, and a pass / fail is ascertained. The passed or failed boards are then placed in separate carousels, where the failed boards can be diagnosed and repaired for retesting. In addition to the test data, IQ also provides a complete summary report, that will detail pass fail statistics for each DUT and operator.

Functional Collaborative Robot Test
One of our most recent integrations for a major OEM, was to functional test and flash programming for each pcb under test. The PreciseFlex Brooks collaborative robot was the perfect tool for this application.
The process is a seamless integration of a robotic board placement as the operator progresses through the board test, firmware load and pass / fail declaration. The collaborative robotics accelerates this process and dramatically improves typical downtimes.
The loading of firmware onto the board was facilitated with the SMH Highspeed FlashRunner Microcontroller Programmer.
In this application, IQ was able to provide:
- Serial communication verification
- Simultaneous FlashRunner programming
- Pass / fail acknowledgement
- Effortless robotic snap-in DUT exchange
- Fingertip controls
- Accurate Data Logging Software
For future applications, this robotic automation can be customized to virtually any controller chip, or manufacturing requirements.
