From the agony of choice to harmony in the test system: LabView and Actor Framework

Innovative test systems for your product success

Test benches play a decisive role in product development, as they enable the performance, reliability and safety of a product to be tested under realistic conditions and thus possible faults to be recognised and rectified at an early stage. Read here how we improve these systems.

When choosing your test software, developers are often faced with a seemingly endless flood of measuring devices, data acquisition hardware and a wide variety of industrial protocols. Whether for the development test bench or the end-of-line test bench, you are required to deliver fast and high-quality results.

You not only have to keep an eye on costs, but also on time. Test systems that communicate in several languages and are constantly changing? A nightmare. But what if there was a way to tame this complexity, harmonise your test benches with different components and simplify the range of functions and functional testing in the process?

You want software that is flexible, customisable and powerful at the same time. But how do you achieve this?

It’s no coincidence that we at B&W rely on LabVIEW, and you should too. But why?

  1. Playfully simple yet powerful: Graphical programming that makes even the most complex systems a breeze and fulfils the norm as well as the standard.
  2. More than just a platform: Whether desktop, mobile device or embedded system – with LabVIEW you are at home everywhere.
  3. Ready for real-time: Automation, control, or real-time hardware? LabVIEW is ready when you are.
  4. Seamless hardware integration: sensors, actuators, measurement devices. No matter what you need – LabVIEW connects.

But LabVIEW alone is not enough: Why the Actor Framework is the key to success:

Do you know this? Functions need to be added quickly or processes need to be changed. This is where the Actor Framework comes into play!
With the Actor Framework, you not only increase the performance of your test bench software, but also gain flexibility and modularity. Do you want a database for test equipment and test steps? Or a personalised operating concept? With the Actor Framework, you are only a few clicks away. Through the clever use of LabVIEW and the Actor Framework, we at B&W have created impressive tool systems. And the best thing? We don’t just offer the test bench software, but the complete package: from the mechanics to the electronics.

Tired of constant customisation and inflexible software? Then it’s time for LabVIEW and the Actor Framework. And if you need support, we are here for you. Does that ring a bell? Then get in touch with us. B&W has the solution you’re looking for!
