Certificate
Highly reliable safety and quality are necessary for a good market result. We support you from the development of your product to its distribution and beyond. Secure yourself in the global competition, minimize the risk of product liability and create confidence from your customers with our certificate. Internationally recognized quality statements and test signs can be used as advertisements for your product.
As an accredited laboratory, we examine products including the following.
- audio/video devices
- display devices
- printers
- input devices (mouse, keyboard etc.)
- flat screens
- graphic boards
- Organizer (Pocket-PC)
- PC's and notebooks
- Projectors
- Scanner
Based on relevant guidelines, laws, norms and standards, we examine ergonomic requirements and recommendations as well as quality characteristics as lists below.
- Audio-/Video quality parameter (frequency range, frequency response, resolution, colour rendering etc.)
- Benchmark-Test, performance and measuring of effectiveness
- User-friendliness and suitability for use
- Image quality (luminance, contrast, character presentation, geometry, anti-reflection, colour presentation, flicker, jitter, convergence, pixel faults etc.)
- Energy consumption and energy efficiency
- Design and content of manuals
- Properties of the design
- Noise emission
- Light technical properties (light output, colour reproduction etc.)
- Mechanical robustness, permanency and long time behaviour
- Electrical and magnetic emission
- Spot checking / permanent checking for characteristics
- Transmission and reflection characteristics
- Environment checking (temperature, dampness, shock and vibration)
Depending on requirements, the results are presented in a test report, data sheet, expert opinion, presentation and/or with a test sign.
