Linear stroke
A linear stroke describes a straight-line motion in which a component moves along a defined axis. In Test Fixtures and test systems, the linear stroke enables controlled approach to the test object and ensures that Contact Probes, adapter elements, or mechanical assemblies are guided precisely.
Linear motion supports uniform contact conditions, reproducible test sequences, and reliable signal transmission. The linear stroke is therefore a key design factor for stable test results, defined Contact forces, and process-reliable contacting.
FAQ
Linear motion is used in Test Fixtures, test systems, and mechanical contact units when components need to be moved along a defined axis.
A Linear stroke ensures smooth motion and supports stable contact conditions, defined Contact forces, and reproducible test results.
In a Linear stroke, the movement occurs in a straight line along an axis. In contrast, a swivel motion occurs around a pivot point or within an angular range.
