Manufacturing
As a consequence of advances in IT usage, most equipment manufacturers have adopted modern, automated production technology to keep pace with the market demand. In addition to modern, automated, production lines, sophisticated manufacturing control systems have likewise been employed. Managing these systems efficiently and flexibly is essential to production results and reduced manufacturing costs. Quality control presents another critical challenge. To ensure the quality of the products being shipped, function testing is a key operation on the production line. Integrating test equipment and high efficiency management solutions to perform the various testing procedures can bring an enormous benefits to production management.
To meet the demands of a wide variety of production environments and increase production line efficiency, ATEN has developed a number of solutions that provide convenient, flexible, and efficient management of production control systems and quality testing operations.
Computing Device Manufacturer
To ensure the high quality of their products, computing device manufacturers must perform rigorous testing procedures before allowing their products to ship. The manufacturer has a large number of devices that need to be tested, and each test engineer must monitor and access multiple systems simultaneously. The ALTUSEN KN2116A, with its Panel Array Mode™, allows an engineer to view the status of up to 16 test units at the same time – thereby improving work efficiency, considerably increasing time savings, and significantly reducing the idle time of each unit on the testing rack.

Tablet PC Production Line
Over the last several years, Tablets have gradually begun to replace traditional desktop computers and laptops in consumer popularity. With HDMI currently being the most popular audio/video interface, new Tablets are designed with HDMI ports that allow users to connect to external HDMI devices. Therefore, a manufacturer must test the HDMI output signal of each Tablet that comes down the production line for quality and reliability. Integrating VanCryst™ HDMI switches into the testing phase lets the operator select and test the signal performance and stability of multiple Tablets from a single workstation, for a more efficient and productive operation.

LCD / TV Monitor Display Testing
DVI and HDMI are the two most popular digital interfaces used in computers and consumer electronics, including display devices such as LCD monitors, HDTVs and projectors. To guarantee high quality products, display device manufacturers have to conduct rigorous quality control tests before allowing their products to go on the market. More Information

LCD Panel Manufacturer
Leading producers of LCD panels work with a multitude of manufacturing and module assembly plants around the world. They require 3–shift engineers for full time operation. Without the proper setup to supervise all these operations, management is not maximizing personnel efficiency. More Information

Semiconductor Manufacturer
A semiconductor manufacturer needs to reduce the time that its fab equipment stands idle while waiting for an operator's commands to resume production. It also would like to achieve nearly 100% production line automation. More Information
