The CERTI Foundation’s instrumentation and test services, aimed mainly at measuring development, employ multiple signal capturing, coupled with digital processing of information and communication to refeed actuators and develop instruments, test benches and intelligent monitoring and control systems.

DEVELOPMENT OF MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS AND TEST BENCHES

CERTI, with expertise in understanding the challenges of production line measurement, and with access to new information and communication technologies – including wireless and mobile devices – develops systems aimed at quality control and product development.

• Automated measurement systems for quality control on production lines (of various magnitudes).
• Test benches for products and systems.
• Metrological validation of automated measurement systems and test benches.

SPECIAL TEST PLANNING AND EXECUTION SERVICES

Planning of functional tests for mechatronic products, execution of reliability tests and analysis, working with a focus on circuit boards and functional tests. The services range from pre-certification tests to special, routine or on-demand trials.

• Development of testing methods and procedures.
• Test execution and result analysis.
• Non-destructive trials.
• Product certification support (pre-certification tests).
• Specification of test equipment and laboratories.

DEVELOPMENT OF SOLUTIONS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING

Good measurements depend on equipment, trained workers and controlled environments. The development of instrumentation for online laboratory control presents reference environmental conditions, ensuring measurement quality.

• WiFi, GPRS and satellite telemetry solutions.
• Supervisory systems for data collection, visualization and analysis.
• Smart sensor networks.
• Systems for monitoring environmental conditions of laboratories, measuring rooms and other controlled environments.
• Systems for multiparametric monitoring of natural environments (air, water).

Using Monta-SMIR as a basis for data recording and processing and the CERTI Foundation’s recognized knowledge of metrological services, sensors for environmental variables – such as wind direction and speed, air temperature and humidity, atmospheric pressure, global solar radiation, and river levels – are integrated with alternative power source systems to install environmental data collection stations in remote regions.

DEVELOPMENT OF SOLUTIONS FOR MONITORING EQUIPMENT

CERTI, together with national and international partners, develops solutions for monitoring asset integrity.

• Specialized telemetry solutions (PLC, fiber optics).
• Sensoring of integrity of structures and equipment/machines (acoustic emissions, eddy currents, vibrations, etc.)
• Supervisory systems for data collection and visualization.
• Cognitive (intelligent) data analysis.
