Test Tooling and Fixtures
To achieve accurate and repeatable results, units under test must be presented to the tester in
the same fashion every time. The tooling must also be robust enough to withstand daily
repeated use. The following are some key points to keep in mind in you tooling and fixture
designs.
• Operator Safety
o Zero-access, No pinch points
o Ergonomically designed
o Simple load/unload
• Material Selection
o Stainless Steel
o Anodized Aluminum
o Delrin, etc.
• Sealing Forces
o Exerted forces should no mask possible leaks
• Single or Multi-purpose
o Should the tool be dedicated to a single task or fit multiple models?
• Size
o How much production space do you have?
• Component Selection
o Custom designed pieces or off-the-shelf technology?
