In industries where performance and uptime are critical, reliability cannot be an afterthought. It must be engineered into the product from the very first concept. At ClickTouch, this philosophy guides every decision we make, from early design choices to final production testing.
For more than 40 years, we have refined a validation approach that ensures every solution we deliver meets the highest standards of consistency, durability, and long-term performance. Our structured EVT/DVT/PVT process gives us full control over quality at every stage of development.
Reliability isn’t something we hope for. It’s something we prove.
A Structured Validation Flow for Maximum Confidence
To guarantee dependable performance, every ClickTouch solution undergoes a comprehensive validation flow. This disciplined approach ensures that each product is thoroughly tested, optimized, and verified before it reaches our customers.
Engineering Validation Testing (EVT)
EVT is where ideas become reality. During this phase, we confirm the technical feasibility of the design and validate core functionality. This includes:
- Verifying electrical and mechanical performance
- Testing early prototypes under expected use conditions
- Identifying potential design improvements early in the process
EVT ensures that the foundation of the product is solid before moving forward.
Design Validation Testing (DVT)
Once the engineering fundamentals are confirmed, we shift focus to durability and robustness. DVT evaluates how the product behaves in real-world environments, including:
- Temperature cycling and thermal stress
- Humidity and moisture exposure
- Mechanical shock and vibration
- Long-term wear and material fatigue
- Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
This phase ensures the design can withstand the environmental and operational challenges of its intended application.
Production Validation Testing (PVT)
The final step is validating the production process itself. PVT ensures that the product can be manufactured consistently, at scale, without compromising quality.
This includes:
- Verifying assembly repeatability
- Testing production samples for performance consistency
- Ensuring stable supply chains and material quality
- Confirming that manufacturing tolerances remain within specification
PVT gives our customers confidence that every unit, not just the prototypes, will perform reliably.
40+ Years of Expertise in Materials and Testing
Reliability is not only about testing, it’s about knowing what to test, how to test, and which materials and technologies will deliver the best long-term results.
With more than four decades of experience, ClickTouch has developed deep expertise in:
- Material selection for harsh environments
- Long-term durability assessment
- Failure mode analysis
- Environmental and lifecycle testing
- Industry-specific compliance requirements
This knowledge allows us to anticipate challenges before they arise and design solutions that stand the test of time.
100% Functional Testing, No Exceptions
Before any ClickTouch product leaves our manufacturing facilities, it undergoes 100% functional testing. Every unit is individually verified to ensure:
- Correct electrical performance
- Accurate touch or sensing behavior
- Stable firmware operation
- Compliance with customer specifications
This final step ensures that our customers receive products they can trust, every time.
Why Our Validation Approach Matters
Choosing ClickTouch means choosing reliability that has been engineered, tested, and proven. Our rigorous validation process delivers:
- Consistent performance across all units
- Reduced field failures and downtime
- Longer product lifecycles
- Faster time-to-market through structured testing
- Confidence in mission-critical applications
When reliability matters, our validation process makes the difference.
