6-Axis Robot Auto Drop Tester for Electronic Devices
6-Axis Robot Auto Drop Tester for Electronic Devices is a newly launched product from Qualitest. Portable electronic products, such as smartphones, tablets, e-books, electronic dictionaries, laptops, MP3 players, game consoles, VR devices, remote controls, chargers, headphones, and key components like touch modules, glass covers, product shells, camera modules, fingerprint modules, antenna modules, PCBAs, soft pack batteries, transmitters, and receivers, are all susceptible to accidental falls, damage, spontaneous combustion, and explosions during use.
To address these risks, major brand manufacturers and parts suppliers worldwide have increased their focus on product drop testing. Global standards such as IEC6006E-2-32, JIS C 60068-2-32, YD/T1539, and GB/T2423.8 have been established to standardize these tests.
The Need for Drop Testing at Various Stages
Products require drop verification tests at multiple stages, including the R&D stage, small-scale trial production, and spot checks after mass production. For example, a smartphone typically undergoes at least 500 drop tests from the R&D stage to mass production. Each product is tested more than 20 times, significantly increasing the demand for drop testing by major manufacturers.
However, traditional drop testing machines require manual handling by operators, including clamping and placing the samples, picking them up after the test, and visually inspecting for damage. This manual process is inefficient and inconsistent, leading to poor test reliability and potentially misleading the R&D team.
Advancements in Auto Drop Testing
The use of a 6-axis robot revolutionizes this process by automating the loading and unloading of products, picking up samples after they fall, and automatically aligning products with the dropping mechanism. This technology can execute 24 different drop scenarios, including edge, corner, and surface drops, for up to 10 mobile phones or tablets simultaneously.
This advanced machine integrates artificial intelligence control, automatic testing, and visual recognition, ensuring high efficiency and consistent results. The automation of drop testing enhances accuracy and reliability, providing valuable insights to the R&D team without the variability introduced by human operators.
Auto drop testing for electronic devices is crucial for ensuring product durability and safety. By adhering to international standards and utilizing advanced robotic testing solutions, manufacturers can improve the reliability of their products. The implementation of automated drop testing machines not only increases efficiency but also provides consistent and accurate test results, ultimately leading to higher quality and safer electronic devices.
