If you have decided that automation will work for you, congratulations. You have taken the first step to advancing your business outlook by becoming vastly more efficient with time, money and production.
What to Automate
Whether you are running an “In house” or “3rd party” calibration lab or even a production facility it’s essential to gather some basic data about the volume, time, price and type of work that your lab processes on a regular basis. For instance, the type of test equipment a customer may have in the telecommunications industry will most likely be comprised of 60% power supplies/multi-meters, 20% of oscilloscopes and 20% RF analyzers/generators/misc.
How many stations you have to support all your customer’s equipment will also be a factor in choosing what to automate. It is not unusual for many RF performance verification procedures to take a few days to complete manually and it’s not uncommon to find redundancy in stations to keep up with the work load. You will find that with automation you will not need so many stations since you can support all your customer or production test equipment with less stations automated.
