Extensive research and development lies at the heart of complex technologies. Requirements such as extreme assembly accuracy, shorter cycle times and the ability to manufacture in high volumes often increase risk here. We actively collaborate with our customers to take on these development challenges and to minimize their risk.
Our Proof Of Concept studies are designed to build clarity and confidence. We ensure that ideas are translated into robust and workable solutions by developing and testing prototypes, building dedicated test equipment or creating an automated pilot setup. This approach offers a logical pathway toward reliable production, while avoiding unpleasant surprises later on.
The pre-automation approach offers clarity and confidence from the very start of developing a production line. Together with our customer, we define the scope and requirements, analyze the production process integration and assess manufacturability. The most critical processes are tested through a Proof Of Concept to mitigate risks and uncertainties early on.
We conduct Proof Of Concepts based on the Rapid Learning Cycles technique for short and focused experiments. These cycles identify obstacles and build knowledge, enabling informed decisions at the right moment, while preserving flexibility for the production line.
Reliability, accuracy and traceability are non-negotiable as a manufacturer. Every step of the project is supported by a proven quality assurance methodology to end up with a robust solution to your production challenges. With this methodology you are benefitting from full transparency and continuous access to your project, so you always know where you stand. And when a concept has been proven useful, we can easily integrate it into the final machine.
This way, our customers are certain that when a production concept moves into automated production, quality and user safety are safeguarded at every stage.
