Overview
Developed by EIIT- A Controlar company, the Radio Frequency In-Line System (RFILS) is a specialized test handling system designed for high-frequency test applications.
It performs measurement, analysis, and verification of RF signals in wireless devices and systems, ensuring that devices operate effectively and meet stringent quality standards.
Designed to cover wireless requirements such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, radio, satellite, LAN, power metering, RF testing, and more, the RFILS-1000 can accommodate a wide range of PCB dimensions and offers future expandability.
An integrated Faraday cage ensures RF signal integrity, while its double conveyor system enables smooth integration in a serial in-line setup with other handlers.
Product Configuration
- Versatile: Adapted to a wide range of PCB dimensions (from individual PCB boards to fully assembled devices).
- Integrated Faraday cage: Creating a controlled environment for RF testing, ensuring signal accuracy and isolation.
- Compact footprint: Connectable in a serial line configuration with other handlers thanks to the double conveyor system at SMEMA level.
- Special instrumentation subrack: Includes a secondary interface for the fixture, with minimal wiring distance between instrumentation and the DUT (Device Under Test).
- Built-in communication: Handlers communicate internally, eliminating the need for external link-conveyors, barcode readers, or buffer stations.
- Software-configurable setup: Line configuration is done via software and adapted during product setup.
- Lateral connector actuation: Designed for interfaces like USB and Etherne, ensures controlled insertion force, enhancing reliability and performance.
- Handling time: Approximately 8 seconds (excluding test time).
- Quick fixture changeover: Less than 3 minutes per change.
- High-resistance structure: Built with iron and aluminum, capable of withstanding forces up to 8 kN.
-
Automatic conveyor width adjustment: Includes programmable memory for different product sizes.
-
High-speed conveyor: Programmable speeds up to 1000 mm/s.
- Programmable testing heights: Achieved via servo motor actuation.
-
Modular pilon blocks: Designed for easy integration of instruments (e.g., CAN, RF, pneumatic, custom interfaces).
-
System communication: Compatible with .NET, NI LabWindows/CVI, LabVIEW, or other third-party platforms via TCP/IP.
-
Beckhoff virtual PLC: For advanced machine control and integration.
Main applications
RFILS1000 is especially designed for high-frequency test applications across a variety of sectors, including Automotive, Telecommunications, Medical, Aerospace, Networks, and Defense.
