How standards are met Flashcards
What is a company that ensures standards are met
British standard institute
What are things the BSI may check for
Durability Fit for purpose Environmental impact Ease of disposal Waste Labeling Energy efficency Finishes
What is another company that checks for standards
The ISO
Talk about physical testings
Where protoypes and products go for vigourous testing to ensure they are ready to be sold - done on things such as impact, hardness , toughness etc
Talk about functionality testing
Where the product is required to function as intended - done through consumer testing
What is accelerated testing
Where a product is used an a faster rate than it would be to test the longevity of it
What is consumer testing
Where untrained individuals aid designing of products and the fucntionality of it
What is visual testing
Using things such as CAD and softwares to take a mathematical, calculated approach to how products work , etc
What is accuracy testing
Whether a product fitsa range of tolerances , if the product output sthe right amount of voltage etc.
What is performance testing
Where a proof of concept is used to test the product - damaging the product as if it were done by consumers and seeing what happens
