We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Testing Laboratories",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Electromagnetic compatibility tests in Boston area from
TUV Rheinland of North America, which we summarised at the time by saying "TUV Rheinland announced that the Compliance Management Group has agreed to let them use its EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) testing and certification services in
Boxborough, Mass, USA".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Test/certification firm opens another USA facility from
TUV Rheinland UK: "An independent provider of product testing and certification services, TUVRheinland, has opened a testing facility in Rocheter, NY and has signed a deal with Eastman Kodak".
In April 2007, we covered the news from Labtronics
concerning its Real-Time Management of Laboratory Information
- take a look at Real-time management for testing laboratories
which says: "Labtronics has launched Nexxis iLAB for real-time management of laboratory information, which maximises resource utilisation and minimises management overhead".
Take a look also at the news release from Thermo Fisher Scientific Informatics, Analytical testing laboratory manages data,
as well as Materials testing software fulfills Tenstand from Zwick Roell,
and Flash scanner has multiple test connections from Clare Instruments.
