The PLC Controlled Six-Station Plug Socket Endurance Life Cycle Testing System represents HongCe's 15+ years of expertise in automated electrical safety testing systems. This precision testing system is engineered to satisfy every requirement of IEC 60884-1 Clauses 20 (Breaking Capacity) and 21 (Normal Operation), IEC 60669-1 Clauses 19 (Normal Operation) and 20 (Making and Breaking Capacity), and corresponding national standards including GB/T 2099.1, VDE 0620-1, BS 1363-1, and EN 60669-1.
Each station operates with complete independence—different stroke lengths, speeds, cycle count targets, ON/OFF timing parameters, and failure detection thresholds can be configured simultaneously.
Industrial-grade PLC with 7-inch color HMI touch screen provides deterministic real-time control with intuitive, icon-driven user interface requiring no programming knowledge.
200W AC servo motors with 17-bit absolute encoders (131,072 counts per revolution) provide precise positioning accuracy of ±0.1mm, continuously verified at 1 kHz update rate.
Patented modular fixture system with kinematic coupling interfaces enables tool-free fixture changeover in under 2 minutes per station, compatible with 15+ international plug/socket form factors.
Five independent detection modes per station: contact resistance exceedance, mechanical overload, electrical continuity monitoring, position deviation, and cycle rate anomaly detection.
Four independent protection layers: per-station safety shields with magnetic interlocks, central emergency halt, electrical protection, and thermal protection systems.

Eliminates the root cause of invalid endurance test data by providing continuous position verification. Unlike open-loop stepper systems that can experience step loss under varying loads, the closed-loop servo architecture ensures every cycle is performed with the plug fully inserted and properly positioned.
Detects contact degradation before failure using precision 4-wire Kelvin measurement that eliminates parasitic resistance errors. Provides milliohm-level accuracy for trending analysis and early detection of contact wear.
Maximizes versatility and minimizes changeover time with tool-free fixture replacement in under 2 minutes per station. Maintains positioning repeatability within ±0.02mm after every fixture change.
