Series 453 GR2270 CamGate “Z’ Axis Mechanical Test Kits

LThe GR Series 453 CAMGATE mechanical kits, utilizing the patented CAM mechanism, offer precise Z axis linear motion when testing higher point count and finer pitch test centers. By using the Z axis motion, side load of the test probes is minimized thus increasing probe life and performance. The Series 453 provides interface compatibility using the GR2270 Style, 12 block interface. This interface accepts the industry standard I/O, power, and coax blocks. The CAM/GATE utilizes a cam roller system for precision guiding and smooth operation and 1.00” push plate movement. The gate assembly is movable to three different positions which allows for the versatility of top side probing, or relocating the frame assembly for PCA’s the have tall components.
