Testing and Validating

Mechanical Testing

Increasingly critical to ruggedized designs, ensure the structural integrity and compliance of your solution. From testing mechanical conformance, shock and vibration, to life and reliability testing, Boyd can validate the mechanical strength of your design.

Fluid Testing

As liquid systems become more prevalent and more consumer goods are expected to seal against the elements, Fluid Testing is a keystone in production and design testing. Validate the seals and performance of liquid systems with a broad range of pressure, flow resistance, and leak testing.

Thermal Testing

Test the performance of your thermal management solution to validate CFD simulation results. Ensure that complex systems meet temperature and pressure drop requirements to protect sensitive components and improve the reliability and lifetime of your product. Boyd’s Thermal testing runs the spectrum of testing liquid or air-cooling system heat dissipation, thermal shock testing, interface resistance testing, and comprehensive two-phase system testing.

Material Testing

The cutting-edge testing tools and equipment at Boyd help to validate that all materials, products, and processes conform to customer needs. By implementing a range of state-of-the-art testing technologies in various stages of planning and production, the technical experts at Boyd eliminate inconsistencies in product development and control quality and improve reliability.

Electrical Testing

Custom electrical circuit testers are used to measure and test membrane switches, printed circuits, and other printed electronics. Boyd offers circuit testing on 100% of our printed electronics components.

Display Testing

Boyd’s advanced optical and functional display testing ensure your integrated displays meet all visual and performance requirements. We can compare technologies and test how they affect function, output quality, overall performance, and cost effectiveness.
