Even the software can be purchased as a standalone product if needed. Every system requires test program software, which plays a critical role in test development and the management of data collection, storage, reporting, and analysis. “If they prefer to handle hardware selection and system development internally, we can simply provide the software and train the customer how to use it.” Intepro’s offering, called PowerStar, provides simplified drag-and-drop test routines designed to dramatically reduce development of test programs, from single instrument functional control to full test procedures with easy-to-use parameter entries. Engineers can customize their programs without having to write code or assemble graphical components. The software solution allows for modifications when project requirements shift – as they often do. Over time, the system’s hardware components deteriorate or become outdated. Alterations in test project and change of scope parameters ensue. Government contracts may not be renewed or could be entirely terminated. Test specifications undergo modifications, sometimes necessitating a complete reconfiguration of the test. Faced with these types of challenges, a more easily adaptable software like PowerStar eliminates the need to rewrite entire programs from scratch. This can significantly reduce timelines and decrease costs. While designing an Automated Test Equipment (ATE) system in-house is technically feasible, the process is complex, costly, and time intensive. Experienced ATE providers offer the necessary expertise, enabling companies to bypass the steep learning curve, accelerate development, and optimize resource allocation. Partnering with a skilled integrator with multi-disciplinary expertise and leveraging fully vetted components and software streamlines development, enhances reliability, and allows engineers to focus on innovation while maintaining cost efficiency.
