Radar EOL Robot Testing Solution
An advanced robot-based Radar EOL testing solution was developed to increase production capacity, streamline cycle times, and enable precise sensor calibration, ensuring seamless integration of electrical and RF testing for radar sensors in high-volume production environments.
About the cooperation
Konrad Technologies cooperated with global technology company supplying advanced mobility products and systems for passenger cars, commercial vehicles and industrial technology to develop an innovative Robot testing solution. The goal was to increase the entire cycle time of the production and therefore production capacity to meet calibration requirements of various Radar sensors.
Project Scope
Challenges:
- Enable the Radar EOL turntable solution to allow for easy adjustment of the rotation center, eliminating errors introduced by machining.
- Ensure the DUT is constantly powered throughout the entire test.
- Incorporate dual nests for loading, allowing electrical and CAN testing on one DUT in the loading area while the other is in the RF testing area.
- Meet the high demands of cycle time.
Objectives:
- To design and deliver a compact, efficient Radar EOL tester that is easy to adjust and maintain.
- To ensure accurate and reliable sensor calibration and validation within the specified cycle time.
Solution
Konrad Technologies developed a EOL tester with robot featuring:
- Tester with Robot: A high-precision robotic system for DUT loading and RF testing, ensuring continuous power supply once the DUT exits the loading area, keeping it powered throughout the entire test.
- Flexible Testing: Open interface to any communication modules and radar target simulators with automation testing software.
- Efficient Cycle Time: Achieved the required cycle time through optimized processes and advanced technology integration.
Customer Benefit
- High Throughput: The ability to meet the high-volume production requirements by providing dual nests for non-RF testing and fast loading.
- Easy Maintenance and Adjustment: A system that is straightforward to maintain and adjust, providing flexibility with robotic system.
- Global Support: Leveraged Konrad Technologies' international presence for planning, building, and supporting the system worldwide.
