The BST-A fixture is designed to hold a test card in a cantilevered position. Card placement is a snap with a large tensioning knob.
Application
The BST-A bending stiffness control tool is designed to test the resistance of card deformation and can be uses in a test oven. A fixture will hold the card in a cantilevered position with a calibrated weight to apply a force of 0.7N on the opposite edge of the card body. An integrated ruler is used to measure the resulting deformation It complies with ISO 7810 ID1 card physical characteristics requirements and the latest CQM MasterCard v2.15 specifications. And can be used for: – Quality control / production control – Audit and certification
Key benefits
– Easy to insert card in the clamp
– Crafted from aircraft grade 6061 aluminum/steel alloy bar stock and electrostatic coated for a long-lasting finishing.
