Description

Discover Cortek’s cost-effective Z-axis test fixture kits, the perfect solution for testing printed circuit boards with precise linear engagement in cases where traditional “clamshell” style test fixtures are not appropriate. The Z-Axis assembly seamlessly replaces the standard hinged top push plate in our kits, available in standard sizes. For added convenience, the Z-Axis assembly can be individually purchased for a field upgrade if required. Just like our standard mechanical fixture kits, these units can be easily customized to meet specific size requirements, ensuring flexibility and compatibility for any testing scenario.

Cortek’s Z-axis test fixture kits offer an economical solution for engaging printed circuit boards accurately along the vertical axis when a standard “clamshell” style fixture isn’t appropriate. These Z-Axis assemblies are designed to take the place of the standard top push plates in our kits, and they are available in the typical sizes we offer. Additionally, they can be obtained as standalone assemblies for upgrades to existing setups. Customization is available for these units to meet specific size requirements, maintaining the adaptability of our regular mechanical fixture kits.

 

Specifications

Z-Axis Test Fixture Dimensioning

Features

  • The push plate provides an unobstructed working area, eliminating the need to deal with cross bars and ensuring complete access to the top side of the UUT.
  • A full ¾” of travel in the Z-Axis.
  • The top plate is easily replaceable, secured by four screws. This means that changes in ECOs or new product types will not render the Z-Axis assembly obsolete.
  • The actuation design amplifies the force input from the operator. This enables higher force to be applied to the UUT without fatiguing the operator, allowing for increased probe counts without compromising probe spring rates.
  • The actuation process is accurate and repeatable, ensuring precise probing on the top and bottom surfaces, as well as fine pitch probing, without exerting side loading on the probes.
  • The fixture boasts a robust design featuring four linear guides, making it suitable for both laboratory and harsh environments.
  • Gas spring supports assist in balancing the effort required to open and close the fixture, ensuring smooth operation.
