Building a TEST-OK module step by step
-
Design TEST-OK module by CAD
TEST-OK modules ae based on TEST-OK catalog mechanical parts. PCB materials can be ordered at local suppliers or at the TEST-OK portal.
-
TEST-OK parts
TEST-OK module mechanical parts are ordered at TEST-OK. PCB's can be ordered at a local supplier or the TEST-OK portal of Eurocircuits.
-
Solder the components
The components of the test circuits are soldered on the Connector Board
-
Assembly of mechanical parts
Some mechanical parts are mounted between the Connector Board and Spacer Board, such as standoffs and BEAMS.
-
Assemble the boards
Before the aluminum frame is build around the module, the Connector Board and Spacer Board are mounted.
-
Assemble the frame set
The aluminum frame will provide the board the final stability.
-
Mount the centering pins
From the top side, centering pins and FAST-LOCK pins are mounted.
-
Soldering of receptacles
Final job for finishing the Bottom Module is soldering the receptacles and place the test probes.
-
Bottom and Positioning module
After finishing the Positioning Module with FAST-LOCKS and peripheral pins, both parts of this module must fit accurately.
-
Controlling the position of the UUT
Last step before placing the module in the TEST-OK system is controlling the position of the UUT, and check if all components are free from the Positioning Board.
TEST-OK module are build in a structured manner. For the design of your module a PCB CAD system is necessary. This leads therfore to high precision probe positioning, always based on gerbers or orginal CAD files of your UUT. After finishing your TEST-OK module design the PCB's and TEST-OK materials must be used to assemble the TEST-OK module. New test scripts or modified existing script must be written in the TEST-OK test descrription language.
