Insertion and Extraction Tester

The Insertion and Extraction Tester is primarily designed to evaluate the mechanical performance of connectors by accurately measuring the forces required to insert and extract terminals. This process helps determine the connector's reliability and ensures that the insertion and withdrawal forces fall within acceptable parameters for functionality and safety. By simulating real-world application conditions, the tester can identify potential issues like poor contact pressure or structural weaknesses that could lead to premature failure. The test data such as insertion force curves and displacement measurements can be stored and analyzed for quality control or R&D purposes.

The Insertion and Extraction Tester is compatible with a wide range of electrical connectors and terminals, including pin headers, socket connectors, wire-to-board and wire-to-wire connectors, and modular jacks. It supports testing both single-pin and multi-pin configurations with the help of adaptable fixtures. These testers are ideal for assessing standard and customized components used in mobile devices, medical instruments, automotive electronics, and industrial equipment. The machine can accommodate various shapes, sizes, and connection types due to its flexible clamping and positioning system.

The Insertion and Extraction Tester offers a suite of advanced features that enhance test accuracy, repeatability, and ease of operation. It uses a high-precision load cell with a resolution as fine as 0.01gf and a servo motor system to provide stable and consistent motion during tests. The tester is equipped with an automatic centering system that ensures proper alignment of the connector, reducing measurement errors. All test parameters including speed, force limits, stroke, cycle count, and delay are programmable through a user-friendly Windows-based software interface. Additionally, the system automatically stores test data and generates detailed reports, making it suitable for traceability, documentation, and compliance with international quality standards.

This tester comes with various capacity options such as 5kgf, 10kgf, 20kgf, 50kgf, and 100kgf, which makes it adaptable to a range of test force requirements. It offers a load accuracy of ±0.2% and a load resolution as low as 0.01gf, ensuring precise force measurements. The test stroke can reach up to 150 mm with a stroke resolution of 0.001 mm, allowing for fine control during high-detail testing. Test speed is adjustable from 0 to 500 mm/min, which is ideal for both fast cycle endurance tests and slow-motion failure analysis. The system operates on standard AC220V power and integrates a Japanese Panasonic servo motor for high-performance control, all packed into a compact structure that suits both laboratory and production settings.

The Insertion and Extraction Tester is widely used in sectors where connector performance is mission-critical, including electronics manufacturing, automotive assembly, aerospace component production, and telecommunications equipment testing. It plays a vital role in product development labs for validating new connector designs and materials before they go to market. In quality control environments, it ensures that every batch of connectors meets the required force parameters and functionality standards. Testing facilities and third-party certification labs also use this equipment to evaluate product conformity against industry benchmarks.
