Test and Measurement Developments and Trends

Arun ShethMeet Arun Sheth

A key part of any product or system development plan is the testing, measurement, and analysis of critical components and overall product performance.  Those important functions require reliable, high performance test equipment and software at cost-effective prices. GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms’ test and measurement products are the perfect fit.

 

Key products include innovative high-speed digital data recorders, along with high performance signal conditioning front ends, and data analysis software. By integrating these necessary testing elements, the resulting systems can be tailor-made to offer turn-key solutions for virtually any type of testing requirement.
