Progressive Coating
Progressive Coating refers to a specially developed coating for Contact Probes used in printed circuit board testing. It is designed for demanding contact conditions and supports reliable contact with solder joints and contact points that may be compromised by flux residues, oxide layers, or contaminants.
In combination with increased spring preload and suitable tip styles, the progressive coating helps the probe penetrate residues more reliably and establish a stable electrical connection. At the same time, it protects the probe tip from wear and buildup, thereby extending the service life of the Contact Probe under difficult test conditions.
In this way, Progressive Coating contributes to more stable test processes, a higher first-pass yield, and an optimized total cost of ownership.
