Testing in the customer production line
Once an IMU has cleared Condor Pacific testing, we guarantee its specifications. The systems are shipped to customers worldwide. Our customer wanted to test the system in the assembly line just before implementing the IMU inside the missile section. The test output should be a simple Go/No Go, should cover as many parameters as possible, and be operated by an assembly line worker.
We designed a small single axis rate table with a set of measuring devices, and a special software interface for our IMU. The IMU was tested for all main specifications in 3 axes of rotation and 3 axes of acceleration by manually rotating the IMU. The commands for rotation of the system were given via screen. All testing was done automatically. A Go/No Go output was given on screen.
The system has been up and running for more than 7 years with zero malfunctions and with full satisfaction of customers.
