TOP4ICT – Tooling OPtimization for ICT Systems

Project TOP4ICT has the objective of developing solutions that ensure value creation to PARSEC’s ICT test systems and their adaptation to the challenges of Industry 4.0 and to the demands of the automotive sector, with knowledge and expertise generated in Portugal, retaining PARSEC’s position as a competitive supplier for BOSCH as well.

Therefore, project TOP4ICT aims at qualifying the company with last generation technologies for the improvement of its products (ICT test systems for PCBA’s) and tools by designing and developing R&D solutions for optimizing the structure of the test adapters, increasing the reliability of the contacts on the interfaces of the bed of nails and protecting the PCBA from electrical stress prompted during the test (ICT), thus endowing PARSEC’s test systems with better quality (greater efficiency and accuracy), less weight and volume and a smaller production cost.

Besides, with this project, PARSEC will shorten the response time in supplying its customers by reducing project, manufacturing and end product delivery time. All this will cause PARSEC to increase its notoriety and visibility before the market and will promote the supply of these significantly improved and innovative products to new customers, be it in the automotive electronics sector or other sectors within consumer electronics, both in the national or international markets.
