About Huntron

Huntron is a supplier of tools for engineers and technicians who test, diagnose and troubleshoot printed circuit assemblies.

Located north of Seattle in Mill Creek, Washington, Huntron manufacturers the popular Huntron Tracker®, Huntron Workstation software and Access Robotic Probers.

Huntron was founded in 1976 with the introduction of the Huntron Tracker, the pioneering troubleshooting tool that uses power-off signature analysis to identify component failures on printed circuit boards. Over time, Huntron has added robotic automation to help deal with the increase in board complexity and help users save valuable time. The current Access Prober product line can decrease test times tenfold when compared to manual methods.

The expertise Huntron gained with developing robotic probers has allowed us to help customers automate their custom test processes such as guided DMM and oscilloscope measurements. We are continuing these efforts by designing and building open architecture, custom flying probe systems that can be customized to fit your needs.
