Test Measurement and Test jigs:
Test Tools are needed for Troubleshooting and Repairing Electronic
Gadgets, Equipment, Electrical Panels and Machines. Precision
Instruments are required for calibration of field and machine control
electronics. These are also required by the R&D engineer for design
and development of new products and trying out new concepts.
In Production testing, Production Engineering, Quality Assurance QA-QC
etc. You need to build Test Jigs, Configure Automated Testing depending
on the size of project or budget allocated; yet it has to be made
flexible, scalable and modular. These require instruments or blocks
that can be adapted and reconfigured or even interface with a computing
network for automated testing, reporting and analysis.
Special Electronics come with every tool or gadget these days, A Slide
calipers has a LCD display, Digital Readouts on mechanical instruments
can help measure even sub-microns easily. Analytical and
Chemical Instrumentation is another specialized niche. Then we have
medical instrumentation which is more demanding in quality and requires
sensors that are small, very sensitive and safe.
Instrumentation goes into all these and beyond. The day we find water
on mars, It is only because of a precision instrument at the helm of
things.
