Clients with challenging test requirements depend on us to help design an appropriate test strategy for their unique situation. These consulting services have high leverage. A good manufacturing test strategy can:

  • Improve product quality
  • Reduce time to volume
  • Reduce cost of goods sold
  • Reduce inventory
  • Reduce service costs

Is Your Test Floor Design Based On Business AND Technical Analyses?
What process flows are best for your products? How many separate steps should be created? Should all part numbers be tested the same way? How much test is required? Should there be a repair loop? How much capital equipment is needed? How many test stations at each step are required to meet shipment goals? How much money is required and how long would it take to double production?

The above questions only begin to explore the depths of a well designed manufacturing test strategy. Business factors such as shipment plans and anticipated volume may help provide answers. On the other hand, much may depend on technical considerations. How are the product electronics partitioned? How thoroughly has the design been verified? How much built in test is employed? How expensive is the instrumentation? How much on board programming is required in manufacturing?
