Compliance with today's requirements for products and their manufacturing processes calls for continuous improvements to quality and efficiency. Thanks to test automation, Kistler helps its customers to achieve both goals – always with the focus on added value.
Test automation means efficient 100% testing and sorting of series parts by automated test systems – either in the production line or as standalone solutions, especially for very large quantities. Test automation can guarantee part quality and prevent bad parts – but that's not all. Test results from camera-based image processing also make it possible to identify potential for optimizing production – so users benefit from extra added value.
To investigate the testing tasks you set for us, we carry out a feasibility analysis in our image processing laboratory.
Benefits of test automation:
- In-depth advisory service with feasibility analyses of test assignments in our image processing laboratory
- 100% testing of series parts
- Large production quantities and fast cycle times
- Enhanced process reliability and optimized process efficiency
- Comprehensive recording and transmission of quality data
- Reduced quality costs
- Increased plant efficiency and lower total cost of ownership (TCO)
- Rapid amortization (RoI)
In addition to its test automation portfolio, Kistler also offers a special laser marking system for continuously produced series parts (marking on the fly). Its purpose: to meet requirements for product traceability. Specialized software, high-performance industrial computers and highly efficient controls allow direct access to the acquired quality data, together with statistical evaluation. Thanks to all these features, our automated test systems play a key part in implementing Industry 4.0.
