About Automated Test Equipment

Automated test equipment (ATE) is computer controlled test and measurement equipment, arranged in such a way as to be able to test a unit with minimal human interaction. The advantage of this kind of test is that they are repeatable and cost efficient in high volume. The chief disadvantages are the upfront costs; programming and setup.


Products & Services Related to Automated Test Equipment
Battery Testers and Fuel Cell Test Equipment
Battery and fuel cell test equipment consists of specialized test stations, stands or systems, monitors and component modules for performance or endurance testing. 
Data Loggers and Data Recorders
Data loggers and data recorders acquire digital data from sensors and other signals. They are primarily used to store data for subsequent downloads to a host PC, but may also include real-time features such as monitors and alarms.
Laser Beam Analyzers
Laser beam analyzers are used to determine the quality of a laser beam.
Spectrum Analyzers and Signal Analyzers
Spectrum analyzers and signal analyzers display raw, unprocessed signal information such as voltage, power, period, wave shape, sidebands, and frequency. They can provide the user with a clear and precise window into the frequency spectrum.
Thermocouple Simulators and RTD Simulators
Thermocouple simulators and resistance temperature detector (RTD) simulators provide precise standard values of resistance or voltage for simulation and calibration.
