This diploma thesis describes the automation of the electronic component testing process in Iskraemeco, d. d., Kranj. In this case, the purpose of the automation is to save time in taking measurements and recording results. The latter would also benefit from the automation in terms of good data organization.
Automation involves the use of two software environments. The first is called Labview. The developed program enables the measurement of electronic components using measuring equipment and storing the results into the database via the internet.
The other software environment used is Aras Innovator. Its purpose is to collect the data from the database and present them in the form of a test report that shows the results of the measurements and describes what was tested. The report is also visible to other users of this software environment.
The exchange of information between the two software environments is enabled by a web server via an internet connection. The server stores the data into the database and retrieves data from it, which it sends to other software environments.
This diploma thesis describes the hardware and software used in the process, the structure of the software code, its operation and an example of an electronic component measurement.
