XTech introduces unique XTractor for removing XTCA modules

September 4, 2009

XTech today announced the XTractor, a handy, ergonomic device for easily removing AMC modules from MicroTCA chassis or AMC carriers.

"Many factors can complicate the removal of modules — cabling, the close proximity to other boards, and small surface areas," says Laurie Burger, XTech Chief Marketing Officer. "The XTractor offers an easier grasp for facilitating in-house board testing, field service replacement and debugging situations."

The XTech XTractor uses an ergonomic design with an injection-molded nylon handle, a stainless steel hook and key ring. It can also be customized with corporate logos, labeling and colors.

The XTractor is featured in an XTCast video blog, "XTech and XTCA Outside the Lines," at http://tinyurl.com/moxtpn.
