Component Test Equipment
Quadratec Limited designs, develops and manufactures a wide range of Component Test Equipment for many market sectors such as industrial, aerospace, automotive, medical, consumer and power generation/renewable. These are often Automated (ATE - Automated Test Equipment) or Semi-Automated devices with PLC control and PC based Data Acquisition Systems. They are usually designed and manufactured for a specific test or series of tests, on either individual components, assemblies or complete products. These tests may be functional performance tests, endurance tests, environmental tests, safety tests or legal requirement tests. Typical testing examples are as follows:
- Positioning Accuracy Testing
- Load Capability Testing
- Leak and Pressure Testing
- Response Testing
- Temperature & Environmental Condition Testing
- Wear Testing
- Electrical Testing
Typical examples of Component Testing Equipment previously produced are as follows:
- PC & PLC controlled Automated Industrial Component Pressure Burst Test Equipment
- PC controlled Automated Automotive Component High Frequency Pulse Pressure Test Equipment
- PC & PLC controlled Automated Seal Force & Displacement Test Equipment
- Electrical Component Special Purpose Bench Test Equipment
- Automated Automotive Brake Pressure, Force and Endurance Test Equipment
- Automated Automotive Ignition Key Endurance and Environmental Test Equipment
- PLC controlled High Pressure & Vacuum Component Fatigue Test Rigs
- High Speed Spin Rigs
- Flammability Test Rigs
- Instrumentation, PC Control & Data Acquisition Systems using NI 'LabView'
Examples of further projects that could be undertaken by Quadratec are:
- Special purpose linear transfer test machinery
- Special purpose rotary transfer test machinery
- Special purpose robotic test cells
Some of these are described in more detail in ‘Case Studies’.
