Engineering service
Automated test equipment
Create functional and end-of-line test systems that improve coverage, repeatability, traceability and operator confidence.
Contact an engineer
Illustrative engineering concept, not a completed client project.
Where DVAR can help
- Manual testing is inconsistent, slow or difficult to trace.
- A product needs realistic load, sensor or protocol simulation.
- Production needs a maintainable fixture and clear acceptance criteria.
Capabilities
- Test strategy and coverage definition
- Fixtures, harnesses and switching systems
- Voltage, load, sensor and actuator simulation
- Communications and protocol simulation
- Control software and operator workflows
- Result logging, traceability and acceptance testing
What you receive
Deliverables are agreed for the project stage and designed for practical review, use and handover.
- Complete test equipment and controlled design files
- Test sequences, limits and operator instructions
- Factory and site acceptance evidence
- Maintenance documentation and support plan
Plan the work around the evidence
Start with what exists and agree what the next development milestone needs to demonstrate.
Share an outline requirement, current design stage and the main constraint. Detailed files can follow through an agreed channel.
Agree the scope, interfaces, deliverables and acceptance criteria before detailed development begins.
Review the design information and test evidence against the agreed requirement, with clear actions for the next stage.
Before you enquire
Can manual tests be converted to automated tests?
DVAR can review a manual process and define a test strategy, fixtures, control software and operator workflow. The objective is agreed coverage, repeatability and usable results.
Can a test system simulate product interfaces?
The service includes load, sensor, actuator, communications and protocol simulation. Required signals, operating limits and pass/fail criteria are reviewed for the particular product.
What is delivered with a test fixture?
An agreed handover can include equipment, controlled design files, test sequences and limits, operator instructions, acceptance evidence and maintenance documentation.
Start with the next useful decision.
Share the requirement, current evidence and the risk you need to resolve.
