EMS test development

Missed our featured speaker at the 2019 NW Electronics Design & Manufacturing Expo? Find all of the helpful test information from Engineering Business Manager Dennis Frey in this new 4-part video series from ControlTek.

In the videos below, Dennis covers everything you need to know about the planning, development, and implementation of modern EMS test strategies. This information is helpful for product designers as well as people considering manufacturing who would like more information about how they can prepare for the testing process.

The 19th Annual Northwest Electronics Design and Manufacturing Expo (NEDME) is coming up on October 2, 2019 and we are happy to announce ControlTek’s Engineering Business Manager has officially joined this year’s lineup of expert guest speakers.

Nothing makes us happier than watching and supporting our team members as they work towards their professional goals. That’s why we are so excited to announce two recent promotions within our Engineering team. Please join us in congratulating Johnny Ung and Connor Niemi!

ControlTek invites you to join us in welcoming our new test engineer, Dennis Griffin.

A 28-year veteran of the electronics testing industry, Dennis has spent much of his career helping large-scale manufacturers like Celestica, CND, and Murata align and integrate their testing and manufacturing processes. He hopes to bring the expertise gained in those high-volume environments to meet the needs of customers and the unique product mix at ControlTek.

Medical manufacturing is one of the fastest-growing manufacturing industries, but it’s certainly not without unique challenges.

At ControlTek, our entire design engineering, project management and contract manufacturing teams are all highly experienced with the often complex requirements as identified by the FDA.

Many of our customers are familiar with the challenges of getting medical products to market--tight FDA regulations for medical devices often means additional measures such as hazard risk assessment, testing and part validation--but not everyone knows that medical device test fixtures also need to be tested, or just how important it is to ensure your products undergo thorough documentation during design and testing processes.

EMS Testing is one of the most important aspects of any electronics manufacturing project. During the course of product development, testing ensures that all product requirements are met and high quality products will be delivered.

When choosing an EMS test strategy, it’s important to get involved as early as possible in the design process. By considering testing early on, ControlTek can help you get better test coverage while reducing EMS testing costs and speeding up the testing process.

"Finding a manufacturer that has the combined ability to develop test strategies as well as manufacture our product was essential for the success of Allied System's Crane project. ControlTek engineers have practical design experience and considered our test requirements up front instead of as an afterthought. ControlTek also provided skilled manufacturing technicians and dedicated test engineers to ensure every product meets our strict quality guidelines. We could not have been more happy with how the project turned out."
