Manufacturing

We empower manufacturers to enhance productivity, improve product quality, reduce waste, and respond quickly to any deviations or issues that may arise during the manufacturing process.

Services

Automated test, measurement, and control

Our systems play a crucial role in ensuring product quality, optimising production output, reducing costs, and increasing overall productivity. We support manufacturers throughout the product development and production process, providing automated hardware-in-the-loop, validation and verification test, as well as process control and end-of-line test.

Traceability and Compliance

Automated systems help ensure traceability and compliance with quality standards and regulations; ensuring that all tests are reproduced and recorded precisely they increase efficiency and accuracy whilst also limiting the potential for errors to be introduced by any manual intervention.

Data Acquisition, Interpretation, and Integration

Vast amounts of data are generated throughout the manufacturing process, however, it is only valuable if it can be interrogated, interpreted, and converted into actionable intelligence.

With years of experience in data acquisition, we are able to further enhance this information by aggregating it with data collected by sensors already in situ or deploying additional sensors specific to the required application, for example, vibration or vision. This data can include measurements, test results, and performance metrics. We manage the data journey and deploy advanced analytics tools to process this data and identify patterns, trends, and anomalies, providing insights that help optimise production processes, troubleshoot issues, and make informed decisions. This data can be integrated directly into your MES platform, enabling seamless data exchange and synchronisation between different systems.

Thanks for your support on our latest project, We really appreciate the fact that your consultants are never phased by our requirements and are able to undertake the required changes without any hesitation.

Jamie Finnan, Managing Director TR Controls

As a startup, the ability to remain agile and to call on extra resources when required is essential for us to be able to maintain project velocity. The team at Austin Consultants really removed many of the hurdles in deploying our test system. Their ability to understand our data acquisition requirements and support us in architecting the hardware and developing the software was invaluable. We see them as an extension of our team that we are able to utilise when we need extra expertise.

Paul Adlem, COO Joost Engines

Austin Consultants provide a great service when we need additional application consultancy, VeriStand, LabVIEW or FPGA support. We really appreciate their flexibility and efforts to see what is possible even when working on a short time scale. They always deliver great results and I highly recommend them.

Andrew Humphris, Chief Technology Officer Infintesima

Being able to rely upon our systems means we minimise any disruption to our test program. Having a support agreement with Austin Consultants means we know that our annual systems check and any upgrades are in hand and dealt with seamlessly. The engineers are always very responsive, proactive and straightforward to work with. I can highly recommend them.

Chis Anderson, Test House Manager Forged Solutions Group

Austin Consultants’ experience was very helpful in being able to help us to develop the right solution for the automation task at hand. With their support, we were able to quickly and efficiently put a system in place that was cost-effective and appropriate for our requirements. Being able to outsource the hardware build and software development meant we were able to deploy the system without any disruption to our day-to-day operations. They were very easy to work with and I look forward to working with them again.

Tommy Kallerdahl, Operations Manager Valmet

I would like to thank Austin Consultants for an outstanding service and quick delivery of a consultant on site. I was extremely satisfied with Neil Pate’s services, who devised a LabView Hydrostatic Test program, including pressure cycling within two days. He was very professional and delivered the project to my utmost satisfaction. I will keep Austin Consultants in mind for any future projects.
