Trusted, calibrated equipment is a big deal for our customers. MTM customers are already aware of the DAQ-2 module’s extensive, accurate, precise calibration, as well as our ability to provide certificates of NIST traceable calibration, available at either the time of purchase or as a renewal…

When it comes to advanced and cost sensitive electronic products, it remains vital to accurately test these devices during manufacturing and assembly to make sure they provide what the consumer expects and that each and every feature works how it should, right out of the box. The last thing a…

Test engineers face many challenges today. Implementing a functional test plan involves integration of several different measurement and interface tools, software packages and licenses. Acroname's MTM instrumentation takes the frustration out of this process as one of the simplest and…

Create and Deploy Wireless Test FixturesOne of the benefits of using Acroname's BrainStem/MTM series modules in functional circuit test is being able to create and deploy "wireless" test fixtures - a fixture with no wire-wraps or cables. The small form-factor and low power of MTM modules can be…

INTRODUCTION TO MTMAcroname, Inc. has been bringing robotics and automation systems into the hands of engineers for more than 20 years. Our customers include some of the largest corporations and research institutions in the world all the way down to elementary school students. We also advise and…

Not only do we make Manufacturing Test Modules (MTM), we also use them to test our own products. Using BrainStem® MTM modules to make a functional board level test system is incredibly simple. For the USBHub2x4, MTM allows us to make a test system that requires no external test equipment…

Setting up product manufacturing involves many complicated systems and processes. In order to produce millions of devices a month, companies need to massively scale these systems. Yet this scale is in direct conflict with fast product changes and time-to-market for "the next big thing". Major…

high power loads using low-level voltage signalsA common automation system requirement is to drive or actuate high power loads using low-level voltage signals. Motors, solenoids, relays and capacitive loads can be actuated with appropriate circuitry that is only possible using small…
