Three-wheel bending tester for mechanical reliability testing of smart cards per ISO/IEC standards

Figure 1: Three Wheel Tester Overview
What is a Three Wheel Tester?
A Three Wheel Tester is a mechanical reliability testing equipment for smart cards. It performs three-wheel bending tests according to ISO/IEC 10373-1 standard to verify card durability and mechanical resistance.
Testing Standards:
- ISO/IEC 10373-1: Identification cards - Test methods - Part 1: General characteristics
- Three-Wheel Bending: Simulate real-world bending stress
- Test Cycles: Programmable test cycles (typically 250 cycles)
- Test Speed: 30-60 cycles/minute
- Automatic Counting: Cycle counter with auto-stop
