Test engineering that carries your program forward, from current production requirements through whatever comes next.
Automotive manufacturing spans legacy component suppliers and next-generation vehicle development, and the test requirements are just as varied. ARC works with automotive manufacturers and suppliers to design and build custom test systems for the full range of needs, including end-of-line functional testing, electrical and load validation, high-throughput automated platforms, and emerging connectivity requirements for modern vehicle architectures.
MODERNIZING COMPLEX PROGRAMS
The engineering range to handle where your program has been and where it's going.
Automotive test requirements span a wider range than they ever have. ARC brings the engineering depth to handle both sides, whether that's a high-throughput EOL platform for a long-running component line or a custom test system for a vehicle architecture that didn't exist five years ago.

MODERNIZING COMPLEX PROGRAMS
Engineered for high-throughput, zero-defect automotive production.
Automotive manufacturers need testing that moves at the pace of production, without letting a single defective component or assembly through. In one application, ARC built an adaptive automated test solution for a starter motor manufacturer that handled multiple models on the same line, staging electrical, load, and vibration testing in a single machine and driving a dramatic gain in overall test throughput.
Arc Pillars
Our Solutions
Why Automotive Programs
choose ARC.
Time to Market
Test system delivery that keeps pace with vehicle program timelines, whether you're sustaining a long-running line or launching something new.
Technical Depth
Electrical, mechanical, software, and RF engineering under one roof, with in-house contract manufacturing, so design and build stay under one team instead of splitting across vendors.
Supply Chain Management
We manage component sourcing and obsolescence so schedule risk doesn't slow your infrastructure rollout.
Design & Build Skills
From first article to full-scale deployment, ARC designs and builds in-house, with the flexibility to support both new architectures and existing infrastructure.
Flexibility
Whether your program needs a turnkey system, a single subassembly upgrade, or sustainment support on hardware with no documentation, we scope to what you actually need.
Dedicated Program Management
A single point of contact who knows your program, tracks risk, and communicates proactively — not just at milestones.
Robust
Quality ISO 9001 certified quality processes on every engagement, with the reliable test data your quality and throughput requirements depend on.
Strategic Partners
We work side-by-side with partners like NI and Keysight, tapping their equipment and top engineering talent to solve even the toughest test and RF challenges.
Trusted by automotive manufacturers and suppliers who build complex products at scale.
ARC has delivered custom automotive test solutions for manufacturers and suppliers across the production spectrum, with the engineering depth to support programs long after the initial system is delivered.
Have confidence that your test system can handle whatever your production line demands.
ARC brings the engineering precision and compliance fluency to build test systems that perform in production and hold up under regulatory scrutiny. Let's talk about your validation requirements.
