High tech or Low tech?
Factory automation should never be complex or outrageously expensive. Tiger Tooth typically takes on projects in which development investment will pay for itself within two to four weeks. Our development philosophy ensures that our clients get exactly the features they need at exactly the times when they are most needed for the minimal cost.
Our specialty is to blow life into older instruments that you thought were ready for the scrap heap, and we use development platforms that are inexpensive, but widespread in the industry.
Most electronic test instruments today have communication ports for GPIB, HPIB, RS-232, RS-485, Modbus Serial ports, USB, Ethernet, or analog output voltage or current ports. Tiger Tooth has worked with all of them, and has even converted some non-programmable instruments into programmable assets using PIC microprocessors when needed, saving hundreds of thousands of dollars of capital.
While many companies frustrate their employees and managers with user-unfriendly “High-Tech” solutions, Tiger Tech has found that most companies hold virtual treasures with their “Low-Tech” instruments already in their inventory. Tiger Tech specializes in getting those instruments back into circulation making money for you!
In cases where the right instruments are not in a client’s inventory, we can usually find the reliable instruments for our clients at low cost.
