LCR-Reader Update; Colibri

After a full year of availability, the LCR-Reader from Siborg Systems Inc. is getting an update. The newer model, the LCR-Reader Colibri.

The Colibri offers the same high basic accuracy of 1% and features as the LCR-Reader with fully automatic measurements. The main difference between the two models, is the ability to change the test frequency manually. Unlike the LCR-Reader which only the test mode is changed when the button is pressed; the Colibri cycles through the modes with different frequency selection. IE: Automatic, L, 1kHz (default), 100 Hz, 10kHz, C, 1kHz, 100 Hz, 10kHz, etc. The device is also able to be reset by holding the button down for a few seconds.  The Colibri also comes with precision tips; slightly sharper gold-plated tips that allow for a more focused grasp on components.

LCR-Reader and Smart Tweezers LCR-meters New Distributor in Asia

Siborg Systems Inc. has penned a new distributor deal with AOne Electrotest Services in Singapore. This new deal will benefit customers in Singapore and surrounding Asian areas with shorter wait times for their devices.

AOne was established in 2007, and ar a premium distributor of high-quality measuring electronics and electrical test equipment, offering brands such as Additel, Kaise, Kewtech, Tenmars, Flir-Systems, Chauvin Arnoux, ect. Instrumentation is their core business and are dedicated to meet the customers’ every need. AOne aims to cater for the growing needs of all electronics and electrical test and measuring equipment in Singapore. From July 2009. AOne Electrotest Services was incorporated to a Private Limited Company.

“We are excited for this new dea with AOne,” says the Director at Siborg, Michael Obrecht, “Our customers will greatly appreciate having a distributor in their area, and we believe that Smart Tweezers will be a great fit among their already existing line of test equipment and products.”

 

New Verification Tool for Smart Tweezers and LCR-Reader

Siborg Systems Inc. and the Institute of Automation and Electrometry of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Novosibirsk, Russia have joined to develop a new verification tool for the Smart Tweezers line of LCR-meters.

The jig uses 16 known components, including 8 resistors, 4 capacitors and 4 inductors of different values within the Smart Tweezers and LCR-Reader measurement range. The LCR-meter is connected to the verification jig using a 4-wire connection. When connected, the jig connects to each component and displays the results on the Smart Tweezers’ display. The tester than compares the component value to the resulting test values on Smart Tweezers.

The 4-wire connection used ensures that there is less noise being generated by the connections on the PCB. Each connection is then controlled by a microprocessor and  a set of 32 relays. After a switch, the micro-controller goes into sleep mode which further reduces the effect of the digital circuitry on the measurement.

“Although all Smart Tweezers PCBs are calibrated after the PCB is made, the verification jig is still a desirable tool for incoming control and troubleshooting devices returned due to a failure or malfunction. It can also be used for periodical traceable calibration if the jig is calibrated by a certified agency. The best thing about the jig is that it can be used for any model of Smart Tweezers after the ST-3 where, for the first time, the 4-wire connection was utilized.” says Michael Obrecht, the Director of R&D at Siborg Systems Inc.

New Smart Tweezers Model, LCR-Reader, has Shipped to Distributors

The newest model in the Smart Tweezers line of LCR-meter, the LCR-Reader have been shipped to distributors across the globe. Now the device is available in India from AdvanceTech, in the UK from KaiserTech, Russian Sanata Ltd. and Japan from VanDevice.

Having global distributors means shorter wait times for shipping and customs for customers, as well as a closer-to-home option in case the device needs to be sent in for repair or maintenance.

Siborg Systems Inc. Shows LCR-Reader at Nepcon Shanghai

Siborg Systems Inc. debuted the new LCR-Reader at Nepcon Shanghai Trade show with excited feedback from current users and new customers.

The new LCR-Reader offers users the same functionality as the Smart Tweezers line of LCR-meter but has half the weight and size of previous models without limiting the high accuracy measurements.

The Nepcon Shanghai Trde Show is the largest electronics manufacturing show in China with an estimated 20,000 visitors and hundreds of exhibitors, including leaders in Surface Mount Technology; Fuji Machine Manufacturing, Sony, Hitachi, Panasonic, Heller and OK International.

LCR-Reader was presented by Asian-distributors of the device AscenTek, China, and AscenTex, Taiwan, and Siborg Systems Inc. Jason Yeh, the GoldTek Sales Manager said,  “It is very important to be able to reduce the price of LCR-Reader compared to the Smart Tweezers LCR-meter. We hope to double our sales wth the introduction of the new affordable model.”

The new device offers a basic accuracy of 1%, the same accuracy available on previous ST-2 and ST-3 models. The first to debut the new design, LCR-Reader features a 1 oz. weight and a slimmer build with a bright OLED display and a new one button navigation. With a press of the button, the device changes the measurement mode from the default ‘Automatic Mode’ to ‘Inductance’, ‘Resistance’ or ‘Capacitance’. All measurement and secondary values, as well as the component type and test parameters are automatically displayed on the device. Powered by a Li-Ion battery and rechargeable via micro-USB, LCR-Reader is perfect for travel or working in the field.

Retailing less than $200 USD, the LCR-Reader’s lower price was made possible by a cheaper manufacturing cost to the benefit of the consumers. To lower cost, features such as offset subtraction, voltage measurements, component sorting with variable tolerances and continuity and diode testing were omitted.

Siborg is releasing the LCR-Reader in July/August 2013, with sales expected to be four times that of the previous ST-5 model.
