InterTech's New Design Report Provides Leak Testing for Flexible Manufacturing
Feb. 25, 2013
When it comes to leak testing, modern manufacturing requires flexible and fail safe systems, which is the topic of a new design report from InterTech Development Company.
When it comes to leak testing, modern manufacturing requires flexible and fail safe systems, which is the topic of a new design report from InterTech Development Company.
Automotive, industrial and medical applications are renowned for the use of flexible automation such as robots and machine vision for improved time-to-market and quality; however, some parts just cannot ship without leak testing.
President Jacques Hoffmann of InterTech Development Company comments, “When it comes to quality control, the last thing you want is a bottleneck in leak testing. That is why it is so important to have quick-change technology like that pioneered by InterTech. There is no substitute for built-in adaptability in your leak testing systems and instruments to ensure on time production and delivery.”
Another key concern is traceability. This means leak-testing technology must be easy to integrate with standard bar code readers and have Ethernet capability. As highlighted in the InterTech design report (DR-131), other considerations for investment include multi-functional instruments that double as fixture controls.
DR-131 from InterTech Development Company is available free and addresses:
Leak testing for fast throughput, short runs and part variety
Quality control technology for current and future products
Error proof design for quick-change fixtures and instruments
Ethernet capability and ability to change and customize test sequences
