TestBox^® Library

Over many years of operation, we have created an entire library of ready Test Solutions for a wide range of electronic components, including hundreds of types of TestBox®.

The Library is constantly being updated. The Test Solutions designs and software are developed by a group of experienced engineers at our accredited testing laboratory. FORM manufactures, supplies and provides tech support for TestBox^® in operation.

Today, more than 550 types of Test Solutions developed by us are employed by users of FORMULA^® Test Systems, providing metrological uniformity in the quality control of electronic components.

When purchasing a Test System with TestBox^® Test Solutions, the customer can immediately begin measuring microcircuits, significantly reducing the time required to release their products and reducing the risks of undetected quality deviations.
