Presence Testing
Presence Testing is a test procedure used to determine whether a component, contact, or plug-in element is present and correctly positioned. It is often used in automated testing processes to detect assembly errors at an early stage. This allows incorrect assemblies or missing components to be identified before further electrical or functional tests are carried out.
Special Switch Probes are used for the presence test. These reliably detect whether the correct parts have been assembled properly. Various designs are available for different testing requirements, including:
- Ball switch pins
- NO/NC Switch Probes
- Pneumatic Switch Probes
- Off-On-Off switches
By selecting the appropriate switch pin type, the test can be optimally adapted to component geometry, tolerances, and process requirements.
FAQ
Presence Testing checks whether a component, contact, or plug-in element is present and correctly positioned in order to detect assembly errors at an early stage.
It prevents measurement errors and protects downstream testing processes by ruling out mechanical assembly errors at an early stage.
