Description

Our pneumatic test adapter PA450-PN is very well suited for the inspection of assembled printed circuit boards (PCBs) or for functional testing of electronic devices. Its high-quality mechanics ensure a long working life of up to 10 million load cycles. Thus, the PA450-PN can be deployed for mass production without hesitation.

Customisation

We gladly adapt our PA450-PN to your individual needs. For further information please see the tab “Customisation”. Moreover, the pneumatic adapter is available as an adapter kit for do-it-yourself customisation.

Interface

An aluminium plate is mounted to the rear of the test adapter and can be used for the installation of connectors or as an interface to our Guardian functional testing system.

Adapter plate swapping

Optionally, the PA450-PN comes with a fast and intuitive adapter plate swapping system. Thus, the adapter can be quickly changed over for other devices under test (DUTs). This optimises the capacity utilisation of the adapter in low-volume production environments and lowers the acquisition costs.
