AUTOMATED TESTING XCELLENCE
- Rethinking automation -
With ATX hardware, you can experience the next level of test system automation:
Efficient, precise and future-proof
Automation is our standard - Xcellence is our claim
Automation means more than just speed. It creates safety, flexibility and sustainable competitiveness. Under the guiding principle Automated Testing Xcellence ATX Hardware combines decades of experience with innovative solutions that make your production smarter.
Automation as the key to modern test strategies
The demands on modern test processes are increasing: higher quantities, more complex assemblies, shorter development cycles and the need for reproducible results. Automation is therefore becoming a decisive factor for efficient and reliable test procedures.
In test fixture technology, automation means one thing above all:
Defined motion sequences, constant contact forces and the ability to carry out test processes completely robot-assisted - around the clock.
ATX develops modular, retrofittable and future-proof solutions that can be seamlessly integrated into existing test environments.
eLine – The fully electric automation solution
With the eLine ATX brings together its fully electric automation solutions in a single product family for the first time. Whether eAOC, eSlide, or eFixture, all systems operate completely without pneumatics and offer maximum precision, reduced maintenance requirements, and easy integration into modern automation and robotic applications. Thanks to ATXcompatibility technology - ,existing investments can be protected while maintaining maximum flexibility. The eLine products are not only compatible with ATX systems but can also be integrated into selected third-party test environments, enabling manufacturers to transition to fully electric automation without fundamentally changing their existing testing infrastructure.
eAOC
eSlide
eFixture
ELECTRIC.
Fully electric precision drive
without pneumatics.
AUTOMATED.
Reproducible and reliable processes, as well as the activation of unused time.
FLEXIBLE.
Modularly adaptable and expandable.
eAOC
Electric auto open & close module
Discover the innovative eAOC module Copilot said: for automated, manufacturer-independent testing An electric servo drive for the automated opening, closing, and contacting of your mechanical or vacuum test fixture. Specifically designed to optimize workflows and increase productivity, it supports both manual and fully automated testing applications. It can be easily integrated into existing test systems or retrofitted at a later stage to accommodate increasing production volumes. Autonomous, around-the-clock robotic testing further enhances efficiency while unlocking production time that would otherwise remain unused or only partially utilized. ATXcompatibility technology - the flexible integration of the eAOC Module into test fixtures from other manufacturers.
eSlide
Electric drawer system
The innovative solution for automated manufacturing processes. The eSlide sets new standards in automation: It opens and closes autonomously, enables safe, unrestricted, and robot-assisted operation, and impresses with its unmatched service life. Multiple predefined positions can be reached with high precision, making it ideal for the combined use of ICT, functional test (FCT), and flash programming applications.Compactly integrated into a 19-inch test rack (applicable only to the eSlide-MMIWK-A and eSlide-ME2WK-AX/ATS MA-11) stackable in multiple configurations, it makes optimum use of available space and ensures smooth operation tailored to individual customer requirements. Fully compatible with our proven MMI exchange cassette system and, thanks to ATXcompatibility technology - also partially compatible across different manufacturers, it offers maximum flexibility, efficiency, and a future-proof investment.
Standalone. Integratable. Stackable.
eFixture
The electric test fixture for maximum flexibility
The eFixture is a fully electric exchange fixture systemthat automates testing processes from the ground up completely eliminating the need for pneumatics.The integrated Auto Open & Close function ensures quiet, precise, and highly repeatable operation, supported by a 90° hood opening angle for ergonomic robot handling and unrestricted accessibility. Designed for modern, flexible test environments, the eFixture offers exceptional versatility. Thanks to ATXcompatibility technology - the system supports not only the exchange cassettes of the ATX ME2WK-X Series, but also the INGUN ATS Series.The result is an exchange fixture platform that combines different technical approaches within a single system architecture, making testing processes more efficient, adaptable, and future-proof.
ELECTRIC.
High-performance, fully electric precision drives with integrated encoder functionality and
no pneumatics required.
AUTOMATED.
The only test fixture
engineered for fully automated operation with up to 1,000 test probes, specified for more than 2 million operating cycles – without compromise.
FLEXIBLE.
A single investment connects the
past and the future of your testing strategy.
