End‑of‑line (EoL) testing provides the final assurance that each unit meets defined performance requirements before shipment, combining product quality checks with functional validation at full production speed. To be effective in an automated environment, end‑of‑line systems must deliver accurate, repeatable measurements within line takt time while integrating seamlessly into existing production and control architectures.
HBK supports this by covering the complete measurement chain—from sensor to software—using robust sensors, high‑speed data acquisition and automated analysis that operate reliably in production conditions. Measurement across critical physical domains such as vibration and acoustics (NVH), torque, force, strain, displacement and electrical parameters enables objective pass/fail decisions, early detection of subtle performance deviations and full traceability, ensuring only compliant products leave the factory.
High‑precision sensors capture physical performance characteristics directly from the product during final testing, including:
HBK DAQ systems provide fast, synchronised measurement of multiple sensor signals during automated tests. These platforms are designed for:
HBK software enables automated test execution, analysis and reporting:
This ensures consistent, repeatable test results across high‑volume manufacturing.
Automated test procedures and high‑speed measurement systems allow tests to be completed within production takt time without compromising accuracy.
Common measurements include vibration and acoustics (NVH), torque, force, strain, displacement and electrical performance, depending on the product.
Product quality testing identifies defective units, while validation confirms functional behaviour against design specifications.
Yes. Modern end‑of‑line systems can interface with PLCs, production databases and factory automation platforms.
By identifying performance deviations before shipment, defective products are prevented from reaching customers.
Yes. Measurement data and pass/fail results can be stored for each unit, enabling full product traceability.
Yes. Automated end‑of‑line systems often perform both within a single integrated workflow.
This will bring together HBM, Brüel & Kjær, nCode, ReliaSoft, MicroStrain and Discom brands, helping you innovate faster for a cleaner, healthier, and more productive world.
