Visteon has adopted National Instruments (NI) products, including PXI modular instruments, NI TestStand test management software, LabWindows/CVI, and NI-IMAQ vision software as part of the company's plan to cut delivery time, costs, and floor space in manufacturing.

"With this new test system, we reduced our delivery time to our customers from eight to six weeks, with a record time of two weeks, due to software reuse. In addition, we saved more than $13 million and reduced floor space by more than 1300 square feet," says Virgilio Salazar, Visteon R&D section supervisor.

Visteon uses NI tools for automotive consumer electronics manufacturing test for its major automotive manufacturer customers.
