The TMX project workflow

We analyze your requirements in detail, based on an existing requirements specification or developed together with you. On request we write a complete requirements specification for you.
We consider technical details such as test requirements, measurement technology and ambient conditions as well as practical aspects such as available space or transport constraints.

On this basis we develop a concept with first design drafts, the architecture for measurement, control and automation technology and an initial cost estimate. Iterative coordination makes sure the concept meets your requirements.

Together we define the best selection of mechanics, sensors, controls and software, taking your standards, preferred suppliers and specific requirements into account.

We also agree on project responsibilities, communication channels and the tools for efficient collaboration.

Key points:

• Design and design freeze: CAD models, room layout and technical drawings with final customer approval.

• Component selection: actuators (e.g. drives, gearboxes, control valves), sensors, control technology and safety components according to the CE risk assessment.

• Project management and coordination: milestones, communication channels and software tools for implementation.

After final approval, manufacturing begins:

The mechanics are produced, control and measurement technology ordered. Wiring, automation and software development run in parallel to keep the schedule efficient. Future end users are involved early in this phase. The test stand is assembled at TMX and prepared for factory acceptance. The software is integrated step by step so that first tests can be run.

Before delivery, the test stand goes through an intensive test phase in which we check all functions under realistic conditions.

• Factory acceptance test (FAT) at TMX: you test the test stand at our facility, including functional tests and documentation review.

• Identification of adjustments: if needed, we make final optimizations.

After successful factory acceptance, the test stand is delivered to your site, installed and commissioned.

• Transport and packaging: special packaging and suitable transport fixtures as needed. We clarify site conditions (delivery routes, door widths, corridor heights and so on) in advance.

• Installation and site acceptance test (SAT): together with you we validate all functions and make final optimizations.

• Technical documentation: you receive complete documents, including CE certificates, wiring diagrams, calibration records and manuals.

So that you get the most out of your test stand, we offer comprehensive training and long-term support.

• Hands-on training for your staff so you can use the test stand efficiently.

• Complete technical documentation including CE certificates, wiring diagrams, calibration records and manuals.

• Long-term support: TMX is available for maintenance, calibration and optimization at any time. Maintenance packages and calibration concepts are tailored to your needs.
