Customer Testimonials
“With the reliability of LabVIEW Real-Time, modularity of PXI, and broad range of I/O, this solution ensures operation in harsh
nuclear power plant environments. We have deployed the system in four U.S. nuclear reactors so far in 2004.”
Matt Jewett

“Our solution takes advantage of the many technological advances that have occurred in the automatic test industry since the LANTIRN
support equipment was originally placed in service. The Air Force can expect a tremendous improvement in mission capable rates in a system
that is less than half the size.”
ManTech was also able to reduce the size of the test system from seven racks to three, a more than 50 percent reduction due in large part
to the incorporation of PXI instrumentation.

“The versatility of LabVIEW graphical development combined with the new PXI-5421 Arbitrary Waveform Generator allows us to adapt to our
customers' constantly changing demands while saving over $1 million dollars in estimated design and ongoing support costs.”
Michael Breneisen, President
Telebyte, Inc
“We have used the wide range of hardware available for the PXI PAC platform, including machine vision systems, multifunction I/O and
motion controllers, to replace the old system with a tightly integrated, robust package. The PXI PAC industrial form factor withstands
the mechanical stresses placed on it by the machine’s centrifugal acceleration, and centralizing the equipment on the centrifuge arm has
simplified the experiment setup dramatically.”

"The PXI hardware platform provides an off-the-shelf solution for a variety of data acquisition needs including both traditional signal
acquisition as well as the CAN protocol."

"PVS/IT-Ford AZ Proving Ground "We selected PXI when redesigning an automated test system because it was the most cost-effective solution.
The new PXI system is one third the size of the original, with testing time reduced 75 percent."
Dr. Eric Smitt, Senior Engineer
Lockheed Martin
"Both VXI and PXI met the application requirements; therefore the selection came down to cost. A VXI system would have cost at least $20,000
more than its PXI equivalent. Since that amount was nearly 100 percent more, the selection was easy."

"It previously cost us as much as $1.5 million to build a console, but with PXI, the most complex console costs us only $250,000 to build."

"The advantage (of PXI) to Teradyne is that instrument vendors are developing PXI products at a phenomenal rate ... It is becoming easier
for us to address our customers' needs in the automotive, wireless, telecom, and optical markets."
John Casey, President
Teradyne Assembly Test Division (courtesy of PXI Technology Review magazine - Summer 2002)
"The modular nature of PXI provides for the inclusion of faster processors or alternative modules for future flight testing with
specialized requirements."
