How we can help

Robotic Test Automation support from first review to production use

Understand your requirement

Review part, product and process variation for robotic loading of functional tests, arrival pattern and presentation, and required cycle and production pattern using your samples, drawings and production observations.

Compare suitable approaches

Run focused trials for robotic test automation so you can see why an option is recommended or ruled out.

Fit the complete line

Resolve tooling, sensing and process interfaces, operator access, recovery and changeover, controls, safety, operator access and maintenance before site work.

Prove and support the result

Check run-off criteria and production evidence in normal, difficult and fault conditions, then agree training and support for your team.

Typical support: feasibility study, sample trials, cell design, offline build, integration and production ramp-up.

ApproachOften suitable whenWatch for
Robotic Test AutomationYou need a dedicated solution for a clearly defined duty, product or part range and line interface.Cycle time depends on the complete process rather than robot speed alone.
Purpose-Built Mechanical Automation for a Stable, Very High-Volume TaskThe part range, fixture loading and connection sequence are stable enough to investigate a dedicated handling mechanism.Review seating, connection, tester handshakes and result ownership across the intended range, including shared test resources and future fixture changes.
Operator-Assisted Fixtures where Flexibility or Business Case Does Not Support a Robot CellPart variation, manual connection work or operator judgement make an assisted fixture worth comparing with robotic loading.Define operator duties, access, identity checks, result routing and retest authority, including an assessed response to incomplete or interrupted tests.
