The 1270/1271 X-Y Board HiTesters are fixtureless, dual-sided, bare board testers that provide superior cost performance. Using a total of four arms, two in front and two in back, it is capable of simultaneously testing both sides of a board, and is available with a 4-terminal resistance measurement function (optional) that allows measurement of very small resistances in IVH or through holes.

The conductivity detection and capacitance measurement methods provide all the features required for dual-sided testing in a wide range of testing capabilities. The 1270/1271 can not only detect build-up board broken connections with IVH, but it can also measure resistance values, making it possible to detect defects such as cracks that are not visible to the eye.
