Testing and validation help verify that manufactured components and assemblies operate dependably and safely, when put into practice. Testing allows us to recognize issues sooner, verify that performance is correct, and to confirm that everything is consistent with standard requirements and specifications.
Testing verifies that components and assemblies conform exactly to what was intended from the CAD models and technical drawings.
During inspection and testing, it is possible to detect hidden defects, such as cracks, weak spots, or unexpected manufacturing flaws before they result in failure.
The components are subjected to real-world stresses and cycles to determine that the components will work properly and reliably throughout their designed lifespan without allowing excessive wear or breakdown.
Validation further supports safety by confirming that all parts of the assembly operate within the expected limits as well as standards relevant to fields such as aerospace, medical, or any other high reliability field.
For product certifications and other certifications, testing will also yield the data records and other documentation necessary to pass the required inspections and audits.
