Bespoke Test Equipment & Functional Test Rigs
UK-based electronics engineering consultancy
Test equipment built
around your product,
not the other way round.
We design and manufacture bespoke test rigs for electronics manufacturers, R&D teams, and industrial OEMs — from PCB-level validation to full end-of-line automated test systems.

What we build
The right test solution for your application
Every test rig we build starts with understanding your product, your production volumes, and your quality requirements. No off-the-shelf compromises.
PCB functional test fixtures
Bed-of-nails and flying-probe fixtures for digital I/O, analogue signals, comms interfaces, firmware programming, and pass/fail validation.
End-of-line production testers
High-throughput automated test stations for assembly lines. Consistent, repeatable testing with operator-proof go/no-go results.
Power electronics & EV test rigs
Electrical safety checks, high-voltage functional testing, inverter validation, and compliance testing for power electronics assemblies.
Burn-in & soak test systems
Automated long-duration stress testing with data logging and traceability, identifying early-life failures before product ships.
Data logging & traceability
Test result capture, barcode scanning, batch tracking and reporting — integrates with your MES or quality management systems.
Custom automated test sequences
LabVIEW, Python, PC, or Node-RED based test software tailored to your device under test, including CAN bus, RS485, Ethernet, and USB.
How it works
From requirement to delivered rig
A straightforward process designed to minimise your involvement while maximising the fit between the rig and your real production needs.
01 — SCOPING
Free consultation call
We learn what you're testing, your volumes, environment, and any compliance requirements. No cost, no obligation.
02 — PROPOSAL
Specification & quote
We document the test requirements and provide a fixed-price proposal with timeline, so there are no surprises.
03 — BUILD
Design & manufacture
Hardware, software, and enclosure built and tested here in the UK, with progress updates throughout.
04 — HANDOVER
Commissioning & support
We commission on-site or at your facility, train your team, and provide ongoing support and calibration.
What customers say
Built on trust, proven in production
We work with manufacturers who need test equipment that actually works, delivered on time.
A specialist consultancy, not a generalist agency
Acumen Electronics Ltd — Registered in England & Wales (16380451)
We are a UK-based electronics engineering consultancy specialising in bespoke test equipment, industrial automation, and PLC-based control systems. Our work spans EV power electronics, PCB manufacturers, and industrial OEMs who need test solutions built to their exact specification — not adapted from something generic. We work predominantly with clients who need deep technical engagement, rapid turnaround, and a single point of contact from scoping to commissioning.
