Abstract
Systems and methods of testing individual sliders are disclosed. One embodiment is a test system that includes a mechanical stress system, a quasi-static measurement system, a transport system, and a slider holder. The individual sliders to be tested are aligned in a row in the slider holder, and the slider holder secures the sliders. The measurement system performs quasi-static measurements on sliders in the slider holder simultaneously. The transport system then transports the slider holder to the mechanical stress system. The mechanical stress system applies mechanical stress to the sliders in slider holder. The transport system then transports the slider holder again to the quasi-static measurement system. This process repeats a desired number of times to complete testing.
