ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus (10, 410) for testing magnetic media read/write head components such as a head element bar (46) and a slider assembly (546). The component to be tested is held in a head bar holding assembly (44) or an alternate head holding assembly (544), and positioned with a head gross positioning assembly (18) or a head fine positioning assembly (16) over a localized portion (50) of a flexible magnetic medium (28) which is caused to spin in relation to a stabilizer plate (20) by a media spin motor (28). The localized portion (50) is deformed to bring the localized portion (50) of the flexible magnetic medium (28) into proximity with the component under test.
