Patent attributes
A manipulator, particularly for positioning a test head (70), is provided with positioning means (10) for three-dimensionally positioning the test head (70). In addition, the manipulator is provided with a mount (30) for the test head (70). The mount (30) comprises a rotary guide (31) by means of which the test head (70) is rotatable about an axis of rotation (y). The rotary guide (31) comprises a mounting plate (40) connected to the positioning means (10) and a supporting plate (50) rotatable relative to the mounting plate (40) about the axis of rotation (y), the test head (70) being securable to the supporting plate (50). Mounting plate (40) and supporting plate (50) have concentric openings (41, 51) for receiving a connecting cable connecting the test head (70) and feeder sectors (42, 52) forming an aperture open to the edge of each of the mounting plate (40) and supporting plate (50).
