MP4 MANUAL PROBE STATION

The Model MP4/6 Manual Probe Station is designed for precision positioning of substrates for test and examination: 

• The X-Y stage is positioned via concentric X-Y Adjust knobs at the front right and left of the stage. 

• With the Easy Load pull knob, located in front, the X-Y stage can be moved to a load position forward of the probes. This easy load position permits safe substrate loading and unloading.

• Two Probe Lift handles, one on each side, raise and lower the probe card for probe to substrate separation. 

• The Z Micrometer on the right side of the unit is provided for precise probe contact.

• Each P4/6 probe station is manufactured to the same exacting standards as Pacific Western Systems’ fully automated wafer probe systems.

The P4/6 accepts standard probe cards, manual manipulators, and adjustable probe rings of six or more probes.  Probe tips of large device probe cards can be viewed by scanning the microscope in X or Y.  The 4 by 4 inch travel of the X-Y translator provides viewing of even very large devices.
