ICT/FCT ProbePCB / Connector Contacts

Product Overview

Spring-loaded test probes (GKS) are used to make contact with pads/terminals on printed circuit boards or electronic components to perform electrical testing.
We offer an extensive lineup of spring-loaded test probes.
Depending on the test point being contacted, we provide a variety of tip shapes, tip diameters, spring forces, and materials.
Selecting the optimal test probe specifications ensures reliable, repeatable contact.
We also offer custom-designed probes and complete test fixtures tailored to your specific application requirements.

Typical applications: In-Circuit Testers (ICT) and Functional Testers (FCT).

[Probe descriptions]

*International standard spring-loaded test probes (GKS)

Standard Stroke: standard stroke (4.3 mm)
Long Stroke: long stroke (9.3 mm)
Wireless: with wireless receptacles, the probes can be connected via an interface board or similar.

*Short / robust test probes

Compact, robust test probes for applications with limited space.

*INGUN E-TYPE® test probes

E-type probes have a higher initial spring force than standard probes.
This makes it easier to penetrate insulating layers (such as flux) on contact.
The final spring force is the same as that of standard probes.

*Rotating test probes

The probe rotates during the stroke,
making it easier to penetrate insulating layers (such as flux).

*Bead test probes

Used to contact small solder beads directly (bead probe technology).
Ensures optimal contact with beads of various shapes, configurations and surfaces.

*Flying probe

Test probes for flying probe systems.

*Fine pitch test probes

Probes for contacting tiny test points at a fine pitch.

*Metric test probes (metric standard)

Probes with a collar for increased rigidity.
