Speed of test, ergonomics and safety are our primary considerations.

Our Design Focus
 > KELVIN Test Sockets
 > Burn-in Sockets
 > Test Fixtures

Test Socket Construction
Most contacts are custom designed and made from Beryllium Copper, heat treated to spring temper and plated with gold over nickel boron. The body of the socket, or insulator, is CNC machined from P-1700 Polysulfone or Torlon. An optional Device Ejection feature is available.

NOTE: We've developed our own powerful design for low to high current Kelvin Contacts. Our contacts have an impressively low fail-rate.

Test Fixture Construction
We interview test engineers to determine test points, preferred connectivity and special features.

Test Fixtures are built with speed of test, ergonomics and safety as the primary considerations.

Post Production
One of the core aspects of TOOLTRONICS' services is Post-production Tuning.

We actively seek out ongoing input from our customers. We use your feedback to constantly make improvements to your product.

For example . . .
In one case, the product evolution was so significant that the test engineer working with us on the project wrote up a report on the process.

After internal publication, our customer received a promotion from the Fortune 500 company he works for, based on his write up.
