Accelerated Reliability & Product Assurance

An accelerated stress-testing and root-cause analysis program used to characterize and correct failure modes ahead of field deployment.

Engineering Challenge

A product needed its reliability characterized and any failure modes root-caused and corrected ahead of field deployment, in order to reduce field-failure risk before or during production.

ATRI's Role

ATRI provided reliability engineering, accelerated life and stress testing, failure analysis, root-cause analysis, and corrective action definition.

Engineering Approach

ATRI designed and executed an accelerated stress and life-testing program intended to surface failure modes ahead of field deployment.

ATRI performed failure analysis (FA) and root-cause analysis (RCA) on units that failed under test, tracing failures back to their underlying design, process or component causes.

ATRI defined corrective actions in response to those findings and validated them through follow-up testing before recommending them for production.

Real-World Considerations

Balancing test acceleration against realistic failure-mode representation, and translating lab findings into practical design or process changes verified by follow-up testing, were the key engineering judgment calls throughout.
