Pin carrier plate
A pin carrier plate is a mechanical plate within a Test Fixture that holds and precisely positions Contact Probes, Receptacles, or other contact elements. It forms the basis for the pin array and determines where the device under test is contacted.
Through the precise arrangement of the pins, the pin carrier plate supports defined contact with printed circuit boards, assemblies, or test specimens. At the same time, it facilitates the structured design of the Test Fixture and helps to integrate contact points in a secure, clear, and maintenance-friendly manner.
