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.
