PC station for test stands

A finished product must pass a variety of tests before it is delivered. This is an important part of quality assurance. Products are put on test stands configured for testing purposes; these test stands consist of various components that must interact with each other. An operating system is required for communication with the individual subcomponents of such a test stand. The SIMATIC IPC377E is an excellent choice for such a test. 

Efficient, simple and time-saving

Possible uses

Thanks to its modularity and flexible expandability, you can use the application example for a wide variety of tasks.

Some examples for the possible uses:

  • Final testing of electrical devices
  • Testing of non-electrical products
  • Testing of incoming electrical subcomponents
  • Long-term and load tests 

How does it work?

By using the correct add-on modules, you can set up a complete, industrial-grade test stand with the help of the IPC377E. The products to be tested are identified by a 2D barcode scanner. The test scenario is forwarded to the I/O board and further to the test object or test devices via software installed on the IPC. The test results are returned to the IPC and from there stored in a database with all relevant data. A printer can issue a test seal after testing has been completed successfully.
