TESTING
DCA provides testing services to ensure the reliability of your product. DCA’s knowledgeable staff is well versed in the design, manufacture, assembly, programming and proper use of a wide variety of 3rd party and custom test equipment. DCA’s background in the design and development of various mission critical devices provides an excellent base of knowledge and experience in delivering working products to our customers with minimal fallout.
Full functional testing ensures near 100% product end use reliability. Functional testing tests the PCB’s functionality and ensures proper circuit behavior. All functional test results are recorded, and at the customer’s request can be and serialized and delivered with the product. Functional testing can be combined with statistical process control allowing DCA to deliver the most reliable products and processes possible.
ESS/Thermal testing tests the effects of environmental stress on your product to ensure that the product will function correctly in extreme environments. DCA has experience in the use, programming, design, and manufacture of various ESS testing systems. DCA has designed custom cooling/heating racks, and automated electrical testing systems, and frequently uses third party ESS testing systems. This allows DCA to confidently ensure the quality of the test, the test fixture, and the quality and ability of the product being tested to function in extreme environments.
Burn-in testing is the process of testing a product over a length of time, usually under varying environmental stress. Burn-in testing is one of the best ways to stress your product while ensuring that it remain in proper working condition throughout the length of the test. Typically a burn in test is run for at least 3 hours while varying from cold temperature extremes to hot, and back. DCA can design and run a burn in test for your mission critical product to guarantee reliability through temperature extremes.
DCA offers both visual and AOI inspection. Full inspection ensures that your product is free from manufacturing defects which could later manifest as product failure. DCA’s background in mission critical products has lead to a team of experienced inspectors with superb attention to detail. This commitment to quality ensures that only the best quality products are delivered to our customers. DCA’s in house inspection team is committed to quality production. Their attention to detail and quality ensures that DCA can be confident in its ability to deliver the best product possible to our customers.
DCA has designed custom test fixtures for many different design requirements. DCA’s commitment to the quality of our products has lead to the need to develop test fixtures, and procedures for various purposes, ranging from simple continuity testing, to full product testing to designing custom environmental stress fixtures to test a products ability to function over a range of temperature extremes.
