This is the first wall you see when you enter the main hall on the first floor of ATL's new building. Clocks hang across a world map, and below them, test equipment developed by ATL is lined up on a shelf lit in blue. On one side of the wall are these words.
Wherever in the world, testing is with ATL. Bringing together our testing know-how, we design and build the equipment testing needs ourselves.
As a KOLAS accredited international testing laboratory, ATL tests and evaluates the electrical, environmental, vibration and durability performance of automotive electronic components to global standards. After years of testing, though, we kept running into the same thought: we wish we had equipment that could reproduce this exact condition. Off the shelf equipment did not always fit the test, and every customer had slightly different requirements. So ATL decided to build the equipment it needed.
The equipment on the shelf shows that journey in order from left to right. It begins with an early control box labeled 'Logic Controller #01', followed by circuit boards, the A.L.D.C dark current meter with its touchscreen, a rack mounted unit and a rugged case unit, and at the far right a large tester bearing the ATL logo stands on the floor. From a control box with switches and lamps to precision equipment operated by touchscreen, every piece started from a need in the test lab.
Today, ATL's equipment development continues in three directions. We design our own simulators to customer requirements, from CAN, LIN and Ethernet communication to component operating and load conditions. Our electrical characteristics testers, built on our testing know-how, reproduce complex test conditions precisely. And engineers who understand the standards carry the work through testing, analysis and simulator design.
The world map and clocks on the wall express ATL's direction: beyond Korea, toward the world. Working with global manufacturers such as GM, BMW and Renault, we keep building more precise test environments.
When you visit our new building, you can see this equipment for yourself in the first floor main hall.
