What Is Testing, and Why Does It Matter?
Testing stands as one of the critical, advanced phases in the production process, driven by two primary objectives:
Validating Assembly: This involves the technical scrutiny of the assembly itself, where both automated and manual tests come into play. The goal here is simple: to guarantee that all components have been assembled and soldered accurately according to the engineering documentation and product specifications.
Functional Assessment: This step is about assessing the product's real-world performance. It's the litmus test to determine whether the product aligns with the customer's defined specifications, whether it's an electronic circuit board (PCBA), prototype, or a fully assembled product.
The Significance of Testing
From a Customer’s Perspective
Risk Management: While testing processes can't eliminate all risks, at BMK, we help our customers minimize these risks by employing a combination of various testing methods, providing a high level of assurance.
Quality Assurance: BMK's Testing process instills confidence in the quality of the product's assembly.
Comprehensive Insights: Proper testing offers customers a holistic view of the electronic assembly process from start to finish, encompassing the entire product lifecycle, including functional performance and precise assembly as outlined in the engineering documentation.
Precision Testing: BMK designs precise testing setups using state-of-the-art equipment.
From a Manufacturer’s Perspective Testing is a critical element as it enables the manufacturer to verify both the components and the manufacturing process. This includes confirming that soldering was carried out correctly, components were placed correctly according to the bill of materials, and more.
Regulation Compliance: Many electronic products must adhere to regulatory requirements, particularly in fields like medical EMS (Electronics Manufacturing Services), or military EMS. Testing ensures that products not only meet customer specifications but also adhere to the necessary regulatory standards, even to the extent of in-process quality control.
