Incap Estonia has strengthened the quality of its production with the addition of a new high-precision flying probe system. The investment enhances the factory’s ability to meet the diverse needs of customers with a fast-evolving and diverse product portfolio.
The Managing Director of Incap Estonia, Margus Jakobson, said that the investment aligns with Incap’s ambition to continuously improve its operations and keep up with different technological developments. “We are making great efforts to stay ahead of industry trends and needs by investing in solutions that strengthen the quality and efficiency of our operations,” Jakobson said.
Keeping pace with technological advancements is essential for Incap, as he explained: “This new system supports our goal of delivering consistently high standards to our customers while remaining agile in a rapidly changing market.”
Jakobson added that the investment solidifies Incap’s role as a reliable and agile manufacturing partner. “By improving flexibility and responsiveness across the testing process, our new system supports diverse project expectations, including shorter lead times and consistently high quality, and reflects the company’s commitment to delivering electronics our partners can always rely on.”
In electronics manufacturing, a flying probe system is used in the testing process to verify the electrical functionality and quality of assembled circuit boards before they move to the next production stage. Incap’s new flying probe system shortens the test cycles in manufacturing and increases flexibility for both prototype and volume manufacturing. It also supports highly accurate, fixtureless testing, allowing the factory to adapt quickly to new designs and respond faster to changing customer requirements, without the cost or lead time of traditional test fixtures.
By modernising the testing stage of the production process, testing time is estimated to be up to twice as fast compared to previous solutions. Incap Estonia’s focus on operational efficiency and process innovation is supported by reducing the need for dedicated test fixtures, which simplifies testing workflows and improves responsiveness across projects. Automation and software-driven testing reduce manual work and support a more streamlined and efficient production process over the long term.
