Show the clamp to Ascentec Engineering, they make all kinds of board holders for SMT, wave solder and selective solder as well as all types of engineering solutions for manufacturing industries. Insulfab Plastics also have some similar clamps.

I showed the picture to all of our test people, they can't identify it 
either, but they would sure like to know what they are. They look much 
better than the larger mechanical clamps.

Hi Carl! 
  
Have your picture posted, it's here:

I'll check with our test department and see if they know where to get 
them.

Subject: Looking for test fixture quick release snap-in hold-down clamp 



We are using some really neat snap-in clamps for our test fixtures.  The 
snap-in latches allowing us to press the boards onto our spring probe 
fixture with a simple 2-handed motion.  The quick release leavers 
retract the latches, and the spring probes pop the board up for easy 
removal from the alignment pins. 

 We found a quantity of these latches on some old testers, but are 
running out of reclaimed stock.  In my web searches, I have found 
nothing like these handy devices, so I am going to my best search engine 
. . . TechNet!  Can "you guys" suggest a source for these latches, or 
maybe similar latches?   

(the picture has been sent to Steve Gregory in hopes of inclusion on his 
technical picture site) 


Thanks, 
Carl
