VIP Platform
All systems Seica have the same testing hardware platform and the same software management, VIP Platform (Viva Integrated Platform) and VIVA Software.
Using Viva Software the user is guided through a series of automated operations in an intuitive, self-explanatory environment, drastically reducing programming time and minimizing errors and omissions, ensuring the quality of the final test program. For special applications, the extremely open architecture of the VIP platform enables easy integration of external software modules and/or hardware, such as via RS232, USB ports, GPIB and PXI/VXI protocols.
VIVA software platform provides intelligent integration across all stages of the customer’s manufacturing process. VIVA seamlessly connects data collection, traceability, MES interaction, and repair operations into a unified digital ecosystem, transforming test systems from standalone tools into fully connected, data-driven assets.
Artificial Intelligence plays a critical role within the VIVA platform. Advanced AI algorithms are leveraged to enhance fault detection during electronic board and module testing, improving the ability to identify complex or intermittent failures that traditional rule-based approaches may overlook. By continuously analyzing large volumes of test data, VIVA can recognize patterns, correlations, and anomalies, enabling more accurate diagnostics and faster root-cause analysis. In addition, assists engineers by suggesting advanced technical solutions during debug and repair phases, significantly increasing diagnostic accuracy while reducing downtime and operator dependency.
ADVANTAGES OF A UNIQUE HARDWARE/SOFTWARE PLATFORM:
-
The combination of different methods into one unique test program for the testing optimisation of very complex products or for the use of test systems for products that have different requirements.
-
It is possible to migrate test programs to different systems, passing from prototype testing to high volumes testing without any further program development (for example migration from flying probes to bed of nails systems).
-
The systems are completely modular so they can be updated periodically with new performances without becoming obsolete and always guaranteeing a good commercial value.
-
The customer can easily manage the systems because after the purchase of the first system the training hours are minimised.
-
Enhancement of performances of one particular system that can benefit of the hardware/software updates initially studied for other machines (we must keep in mind Seica’s experience in loaded boards testing transferred to bare board testing and vice versa…)
