In this webinar, you will learn:

  • When a duct-tape-tester makes sense.
  • How to effectively reverse engineer for a smooth transition.
  • How to minimize the production downtime lost during the changeover.
  • Tips for planning and comparing the new test system against the existing test system.

About the speakers:

Main presenter:

James Campbell began his career in test and measurement by developing signal processing and numerical analysis functions for ASYST, which once was a competitor to LabVIEW. He co-founded Viewpoint Systems in 1993 to provide custom test systems to manufacturers and is now president. Viewpoint designs and builds test systems from new designs to upgrading obsolete systems. Jim has a BS in physics from Bucknell University and an MSEE and PhD from the University of Rochester.

Guest speaker:

Samuel Sanzone began his career performing Research and Development Reliability Testing of specialized military aircraft antenna systems for various DoD Contractors and has spent several years developing complex test systems in areas of advanced R&D and also manufacturing for military, commercial and satellite industries. He is currently a Project Manager and Lead Engineer at GE Energy Connections. Sam has worked at GE since 2005 managing and leading multiple field services engineering projects and has a BS in Electrical Engineering Technology from Rochester Institute of Technology.
