- National Instruments TestStand™ integration
- Application planning, design and implementation
- Integration of software and hardware components
- Network integration
- Enterprise application integration
- Web integration
- Ongoing support
We offer proven expertise in test automation achieved through integrating instrumentation, test step sequencing, data acquisition and analysis. We provide information management through database, web, and enterprise systems integration.
Our custom software expertise includes:
- Motion control and robotics
- Process design and optimization
- Machine vision systems
- Data management
- High throughput processing
- High-speed applications
- Networked and distributed systems
- Manufacturing
- Scientific research and development
Our software systems are are used by test and quality engineers, production technicians, and manufacturing management. They can be designed to allow ease of access to critical information by management in companies with geographically distributed production facilities and large manufacturing networks. Our modular and highly configurable systems scale from research and development labs to pilot plant and manufacturing operations. Our systems can be fully integrated with existing data management systems, enterprise systems, and any legacy hardware or applications.
Benefits of our software include:
- Increase yield by reducing waste and limiting manual operations
- Integrate data from diverse sources into a unified software interface
- Operators can quickly determine equipment and product status
- Legacy system integration
- Integration of Manufacturing Enterprise Systems
- Enterprise data reporting and management
Our test systems can control all testing, data analysis and data archiving operations. Our systems can also exceed simple Pass/Fail testing to offer in depth qualitative and quantitative data that can be used for detailed SPC analysis; enabling our customers to continually optimize their manufacturing processes.
Our systems can monitor process and product characteristics, monitor product tolerances, archive process data, and alert personnel to alarm conditions. In addition, remote diagnostics and monitoring, production control, recipe management, SPC Pareto analysis, scripting, sequencing, data management, data archiving and distribution can all be performed using our software. User-friendly, graphical interfaces allow clients to configure data views, perform analysis, gain access to historical data and generate reports.
We can provide web interfaces allowing users to remotely monitor or control test systems and manufacturing processes in real-time.
