GENERAL APPLICATION TYPES

Design Validation

Product prototypes need be validated against detailed requirement specifications, before being put into production. By utilizing the latest off the shelf test hardware technology, coupled with standard test software platforms Simplicity AI have been able to rapidly provide automated solutions for this process.

Automated Manufacturing Test

Quality demands from customers, increased levels of regulation and more sophisticated products, have all contributed to the requirements for automated product testing. Simplicity AI have worked with a variety of customers to provide complete hardware and software solutions for automatic testing. Test management tools such as NI TestStand have allowed Simplicity AI to deliver full product test coverage within tight timescales.

• Parallel Relay Tester Example
• Standardised Production Test Software Architecture

Process Monitoring & Control

Industries are moving away from using manual operator control and mechanical instrumentation to modern computer controlled systems. Simplicity AI have worked with a diverse range of customers, to provide bespoke automatic control and monitoring systems.

• Compressor Test Cell Example

Data Acquisition

Simplicity AI has a wide range of experience in developing software and hardware solutions for acquiring, storing and analysing information from sensors or signals. By integrating COTS signal conditioning and data acquisition hardware with software developed on industry standard platforms such as LabVIEW, advanced custom solutions can be rapidly built.

A complete service is provided to Simplicity AI customers, covering specifying the hardware based on input/output requirements, designing user interface screens, developing the custom software and providing on-site commissioning and support.

• Rugged Offshore Datalogger Example
• Synchrotron Beam Loss Example

Data Management & Analysis

Modern data acquisition and automated test systems, allow measurement and test result data to be rapidly gathered. However without a well defined management strategy for the data, its value to a business cannot be exploited. After carefully listening to its customers requirements, Simplicity AI have developed custom database structures to allow efficient storage and retrival of complex production data.

Rapid analysis of measurement results is often required within both production and development. However although powerful off the shelf software tools exist for this purpose, they often do not seemlessly integrate with data acquisition and data management software. Simplicity AI have created bespoke software, which provides completely automated data acquisition, storage, analysis and decision making.
