  • Patent number: 10794951
    Abstract: An electronic element inspection equipment is provided, which is adapted to inspect an electronic element. The electronic element inspection equipment includes a first transmission track, a first rotational unit, a first image capturing device, a second image capturing device, a third image capturing device, a second rotational unit, a fourth image capturing device, and a second transmission track. The first rotational unit rotates around a first axis. When the first rotational unit moves the electronic element, the first image capturing device, the second image capturing device, and the third image capturing device capture images of the electronic element. The second rotational unit rotates around a second axis, wherein the second axis is perpendicular to the first axis. When the second rotational unit moves the electronic element, the fourth image capturing device captures one image of the electronic element.

  • Patent number: 10401425
    Abstract: A turret handler with picker pairs is provided for testing a plurality of electronic elements. The turret handler includes a plurality of outer pickers, a plurality of inner pickers, a plurality of sockets and a package carrier. The outer pickers travel along a first circular path. The inner pickers travel along a second circular path. The first circular path and the second circular path are concentric circles, and the outer pickers and the inner pickers are arranged side by side along the radial direction of the first circular path. The sockets include a plurality of first sockets and a plurality of second sockets. The first sockets circumferentially correspond to the first circular path, the second sockets circumferentially correspond to the second circular path, and each first socket corresponds to one second socket along the radial direction. The package carrier includes a plurality of recesses.
