Siborg Systems Inc. Offers New LCR-Reader Professional

WATERLOO, Ontario - June 17, 2016 - PRLog -- Siborg Systems Inc. has recently redesigned their online store as well as added task kits: pre-bundled devices with accessories at a discount to customers instead of buying piece-by-piece. The newest kit in the store is the LCR-Reader Professional. This kit includes a pre-calibrated LCR-Reader, NIST Traceable Calibration Certificate, spare straight tips, an extra battery, charger and manuals. Until the end of June, Siborg will be offering the LCR-Reader Professional at $218.88 USD.

LCR-Reader  is the low-cost model of Smart Tweezers LCR- and ESR-meters which retails for nearly half the price the popular Smart Tweezers ST-5S. Both devices function the same, but LCR-Reader has fewer features which contribute to its lower price. The combination of a set of gold-plated tweezers and an LCR meter with instantaneous measurements make it invaluable in time-sensitive work with surface mount technology. When the tweezers are clasping a component, the device will automatically determine the type of component and measure accordingly after deciding on the best test frequency to use; all measurement values, including any secondary values, the component type and test frequency used, are instantly made available on the device's OLED display.

Over the past year, Siborg worked with the Russian Academy of Sciences in Novosibirsk, Russia in creating a new calibration fixture that was able to calibrate all models in the Smart Tweezers  line, including the LCR-Reader [http://www.lcr-reader.com]. This fixture uses 14 known components within the measurement ranges; when a device is connected, the fixture cycles through the components with the measurement results being displayed on the Smart Tweezers' or LCR-Reader's display. The measurement values are then compared to the known values of the components and the device's accuracy is accepted or rejected.

Upon completion, Siborg sent the fixture to Navair Technologies in Toronto, Ontario, where it was verified. This verification allows Siborg to perform periodic calibration on devices, as well as begin offering NIST traceable calibration certificates for the LCR-Reader. The lack of calibration and certificates was an issue with customers in the past who were looking at LCR-Reader to purchase but required their test equipment to be calibrated annually.

The LCR-Reader Professional kit is available now in the LCR-Reader Store [https://secure.lcr-reader.com/catalog/product_info.php?pr...] for $218.88 USD until the end of June; comparable task kits retail around $270 USD. Siborg offers many task kits for both LCR-Reader and Smart Tweezers, as well as replacement parts and accessories. Also available are the Smart LED Test Tweezers that can measure LEDs, switches, fuses and other components and can be connected to an LCR-meter using a special cable to become tweezer probes; Siborg also offers the SMD Multimeter Test Tweezers that add tweezer-probe function to any multimeters with 4mm jacks.[http://www.smarttweezers.us]
