What Can You Do with Instrument Workflow Software?

Connect, Correlate, and Collaborate Anywhere

Test workflows should revolve around design, simulation, and validation. You should not have to waste precious time managing separate instruments, correlating measurements, and building complex test plans. Connect your instrument measurement data to the cloud, automatically correlate data between test instruments and test teams, and collaborate easily across the lab and around the world — all while eliminating human errors along the way.

Design for Manufacturing and Test

Design for Manufacturing and Test

A common ‘Design for Excellence’ approach in any product design process is the ‘Design for Manufacturing’ which is simply to ensure the products are easier to be manufactured. A significant and important part of this approach is the ‘Design for Manufacturing Test’ concept. A final product that was manufactured but is difficult to test to effectively measure its quality and reliability before shipping out may result in disastrous consequences when these products fail out in the field, especially when the products are used in mission-critical industries such as the automotive industry. In this white paper, we will look into detail of a single but important task that a design engineer needs to do as part of their design workflow. This task is where the engineer will need to decide which components to use and from which vendor in order to achieve the best outcome in terms of manufacturability. Here, we will introduce a concept and use case of ‘Design for Manufacturing Test’ to allow design engineers to focus more on their development.

Accelerate Your Product Development Lifecycle with Connected Software

Accelerate Your Product Development Lifecycle with Connected Software

As your product moves through the product development lifecycle, starting from design and prototyping, to verification and validation, all the way to production tests, are you seeing a disconnect between these teams? Are there multiple back and forth conversations between test teams and re-testing being done due to the discrepancies in test requirements and measurement results? By the time the product reaches the production stage, this disconnected test approach can cause serious organizational issues, including delays in product release, increased test cost, and lower return-on-investment (ROI).Download this white paper and learn how organizations are accelerating their product development lifecycle through a standardized, unified, connected test software across the test teams.

REST API for Test Automation and Lab Operations

REST API for Test Automation and Lab Operations

Organizations today face a host of challenges to remain competitive. Their core goal is they want high quality products and services with faster time to market. To achieve that, they must test thoroughly and with effective repeatability. The solution is to be able to increase equipment utilization and automate, an in turn accelerate, everything in the testing process. One essential component of an effective test automation and lab operations solution is the caliber of the REST APIs (representation state transfer application interface) provided as components in the solution. This white paper examines the evolution of REST APIs, provides insight into the state-of-the-art of REST APIs, how they support continuous testing objectives in DevOps, and how they foster comprehensive automatability in testing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Instrument Workflow Software

Design and test collaboration tools primarily focus on an engineer's bench top and span instrument control, data acquisition and analysis, and test automation software. These tools improve efficiency and collaboration by correlating data, consolidating and visualizing measurements, and orchestrating and sequencing tests.

True to their name, lab management tools help lab managers and directors manage test teams and organizations. Lab managers often rely on multiple tools to maintain efficient, lab-wide workflows — but asset and resource management is a challenge. By comparison, lab management tools consolidate these disparate tools into a single pane of glass — providing a comprehensive view of assets, activities, and analysis.

These tools help lab managers create and manage test plans — spanning data collection, processing, storage, and retrieval. Asset and resource management applications ensure connected, process-driven workflows that help teams achieve maximum efficiency. Additionally, lab managers can use the tools' data analytics to optimize equipment purchases, enhance test results, and ensure product quality to increase production, quality, and test assurance across the lab.

Operations management tools combine test and measurement metrics with big data analytics. While there are many big data analytics platforms and asset monitoring tools, operations management tools harness the hidden value in granular test data to acquire, transform, and analyze that data to improve the output of design, test, and manufacturing teams.

Instead of prioritizing maintenance upgrades or process improvements, operations management tools focus their data synthesis and analysis functions on output, upon which a company's reputation rises or falls.
