We are very glad to have invited ANSYS Reliability Engineering Services to work on root cause failure analysis, process assessment and auditing, device testing methodologies, etc. Their work not only greatly improved our product integrity, but also raised our skills ranging from materials control and failure analysis to reliability process and methodologies. They truly bring in the professional excellence!”

- Geoffrey Leu, Opto Division GM, Unity Opto Technology Co., Ltd.

ANSYS Reliability Engineering Services provided a design review of our high value measurement system and recommended many ways to improve reliability through design modification, component changes, improved specifications and test plans. We were very pleased with the results of their analysis. The RES team was highly professional and we will continue to use their services again and again.”

- Kent Kalar, CEO, SensorTran, Inc

Through their system-level Design for Reliability review process, ANSYS Reliability Engineering Services identified very specific opportunities for improvement in our design before costly prototypes were made. Not only did this feedback allow us to meet our pro-duction goals, but ANSYS RES continued to provide responsive and robust support through the development and turnkey execution of a customized accelerated life test plan and subsequent design reviews on product revisions. I found ANSYS RES to be a very unique organization that provided value at just the right time.”
