Test Stand Integration

Test system integration involves providing services related to the planning, design, engineering, fabrication, assembly, testing, installation, commissioning, training, and documentation of a new test stand. It requires understanding the customer’s overall testing objectives as well as specific test stand requirements. On occasion, existing customer equipment must be studied, repaired, or modified for incorporation into a new or upgraded test system. Special software modules are often needed to facilitate communication or interfacing to existing devices.

SAKOR has a reputation for spending quality time ‘up front’ to ensure that the requirements are understood, that the system is properly specified, and that the final result is a project completed on time, on budget - to the customer’s satisfaction!

SAKOR has been providing turnkey test solutions for automotive, electric motor, and related industrial markets for nearly two decades. We have experience in conforming to sophisticated design and fabrication formats, and in working with the user who needs some assistance in planning and specifying a new test system. In addition, SAKOR has facilities and resources to assist with test fixturing and other engineering aspects of your project, if required.
 

A unique advantage of a SAKOR solution is that it will likely be based upon our DynoLAB test executive software package and a selection of reliable hardware interface components from National Instruments. This means that even though your test stand may be a one-of-a-kind device, it will be built using hardware and software components that benefit from many years of test systems development experience. The result is a capable, reliable test stand that performs from the moment you turn the key!
