How to turn testing into a growth accelerator in production

What can you automate?

• Complete test workstations (manual or semi-automatic)
• Automated production lines with transfer systems
• EOL test stations that integrate seamlessly into your line
• Turnkey projects including mechatronics, software, and custom fixtures

Everything is built around the right tester(s) and test methods for your application.

Core of the system: automation-ready testers

• GLP2-BASIC & GLP2-MODULAR for electrical safety and functional testing (e.g., PE/GB, IR, AC/DC HV, leakage current, functional tests).
• MTC3 for motors and coils (surge/PD, winding resistance, inductance) with industrial interfaces.

These platforms combine short test times, high accuracy, and rich interfacing—the foundation for a robust, scalable line.

Data & IT integration

• Industrial buses such as PROFINET and EtherCAT, plus TCP/IP.
• Integrations with ERP/MES/CAQ for order data, recipe selection, SPC, and eDHR.
• Traceability by design: logging of test steps, measurement results, and serial numbers.

Mechanics, safety, and fixtures

Automation is more than bolting a tester to a conveyor. We deliver the mechatronics, enclosures, and safety concepts (test cages, interlocks, light curtains, two-hand control) and product-specific fixtures for fast, error-free positioning. This ensures testing remains compliant with the applicable standards.

Typical use cases

1. EOL safety test for appliances: PE/GB, IR, and AC/DC HV in a single pass; recipe selection via order or barcode.
2. Motors and coils: automated surge/PD, winding resistance, and inductance with OK/NOK routing.
3. Modular line: start with one semi-automatic cell and scale up without rewriting your test strategy.

Why choose this approach?

• Higher throughput thanks to short cycle times and parallel measurements.
• Lower failure costs through early fault detection and full traceability.
• Fast changeovers between variants via modular hardware and recipe-driven test plans.
• Compliance with reproducible measurements and audit-ready reporting.

Roadmap: how we implement

1. Analysis & concept – product, standards, test methods, IT, logistics.
2. Proof-of-Concept – validation of test steps and cycle times.
3. Engineering & build – mechanics, electrical, software, and fixtures.
4. FAT/SAT & training – handover, documentation, and training.
5. Scale-up – additional stations, vision checks, recipe/test-plan updates.
