WHAT WE DO

AER Test Engineering Services

Custom designed to meet the exact requirements of your product, AER develops solutions that provide you with confidence that your products have been fully vetted and are customer-ready.

AER Services

Full Product Life Cycle Support

AER develops custom test platforms that meet the exact requirements of our customer’s unique program needs.  Whether that test platform is used to remanufacture the product to extend its life cycle, to validate the software/hardware at the beginning of its life cycle, or to root cause failures during its life cycle, our team of highly skilled engineers collaborates with your team to learn the product as if we designed it ourselves.

Test Engineering Services

Automotive Testing / Development

  • Puts components, and systems through rigorous testing requirements

  • Adheres to applicable safety regulations

  • Uses real world assessment standards

Testing Systems / Design

  • CAD modelling and design

  • SolidWorks® modeling

  • Electrical wiring and testing systems

  • Mechanical testing

  • LabVIEW, C/C++, .NET, C#, Python, CCITest, CIMTest

Certified Project Management

  • Qualified project management teams

  • Ability to manage time, cost, and risk factors

  • Maintains centralized ERP systems

Product Release Validation

Imagine being able to execute an automated script to help ensure release readiness by running:

  • Smoke/sanity functional tests to avoid basic features found broken after release

  • Ignition/sleep sweep cycle testing to avoid fail to wake up or shutdown properly

  • Final assembly script to ensure product doesn't fail the customer's final assembly process

Product Design Validation

Imagine being able to verify a software or hardware change overnight, or to execute regression testing on previously found product defects to ensure that they didn’t come back.

  • Exercising features and functions during environmental stress

  • Exercising software validation testing

  • Defect reproduction using an automated script

Product Field Validation

Imagine being able to replicate field issues quickly on the bench by exercising manually or by automated scripts the “steps to reproduce”.   Isolating which domain the issue exists reduces the customers stress and yours.

  • Manual testing of product features

  • Custom automated script to replicate customer complaints

  • Portable "small footprint" tester for testing at customer's site

Industry Standard Compliance

  • Meets IATF and ISO standards

  • Adheres to IPC-A-610 and IPC-A620 assembly standards

End of Line Testing

  • Ensures quality of each component and part

  • Uses a detailed sequence of communicative tests

  • Advanced diagnostics for ensuring quality control, verification, and performance metric measurements

Functional Testing

  • Component testing and troubleshooting

  • Communication signal verification

  • Customer complaint replication

  • Reverse engineering to create test platforms

What We Support

What can we do for you?

  • Customer complaint replication

  • Targeted testing and troubleshooting techniques

  • Communication signal verification

The advancement of AER’s diagnostic and triage capabilities provides a unique advantage to each and every customer by closely analyzing each issue from start to finish. We review initial customer complaints, identify key issues and problems, and facilitate solutions to help improve and optimize remanufacturing techniques

We Go Beyond

AER’s proprietary system for testing electrical components goes beyond the traditional pass-fail determination of power/ground simulation tests. AER’s answer to traditional “light and play” methods provide a detailed sequence of communicative tests. At AER, proprietary automation sequences reduce margin of error and increase efficiency because they minimize human discretion. AER’s sequence transforms a 15-minute diagnostic test with a yes/no result into a more robust assessment in a matter of seconds. Manufacturers get accurate, real-time diagnostics directly for quality control, verification, and performance metric measurements.

AER is certified to do the work others are not.

CLIENT SUCCESS STORY

Delphi Automotive, a leading global supplier of automotive technology, desperately needed product support after faulty stepper motors used in production between 2003-2007 on GMT800 instrument clusters caused widespread failures, affecting nearly 10.5 million GM owners across the United States.
