Leading the Era of Automated EMC Testing and Measurement

In today’s electronics industry, there is a growing demand for products to operate safely and reliably even within complex electromagnetic environments. In this context, Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) has become a key factor that directly influences consumer trust and the market competitiveness of products.

However, EMC testing requires complex configurations, repetitive measurements, and extensive data analysis. Accurately measuring and passing various test items—such as radiated emissions, spurious emissions, and electromagnetic immunity—entails considerable time and cost.

At this point, automated test and measurement systems become a decisive tool that improves efficiency, repeatability, and reliability simultaneously. Below, we highlight the value and significance of ERETEC’s core automation solutions.

ERETEC’s Key Solutions — The Differentiation Brought by Automation

• EMC Test Automation System

Evaluating whether electronic devices and systems emit EMI and whether they remain unaffected by external electromagnetic interference is a major requirement in EMC certification.
ERETEC’s system automates EMI/EMS test procedures to significantly reduce human error and variability that typically occur during repetitive manual setup and measurement.
This reduces test time and labor cost, while ensuring data consistency and repeatability. In other words, it enables fast and accurate certification and quality assurance processes for customers.

• Radiated Spurious Emission (RSE) Measurement System

Spurious emissions refer to unwanted radio waves emitted outside the intended frequency band of a device, which may interfere with other equipment.
ERETEC’s RSE automation system transforms what used to be manual or semi-automated measurements into a fully automated process. This enables faster measurement, more accurate analysis, and consistent reporting.

Especially during global certification or pre-compliance testing—where repeated tests and multiple scenario measurements are required—this system offers strong advantages in efficiency and cost reduction.

• Automated Portable Transmitter Test System Based on ISO 11452-9

ISO 11452-9:2021 is an international standard that evaluates the immunity of automotive electronic components to narrowband radiated disturbances generated by portable transmitters.
ERETEC’s automated system places the DUT (Device Under Test) and wiring harness inside an ALSE (Anechoic Lined Shielded Enclosure) and simulates electromagnetic disturbances from portable transmitters or RF sources to perform repeated tests automatically.

This solution allows automotive electronic components, connected car systems, and electric-vehicle modules to undergo essential EMC/EMI immunity tests with ease. As a result, vulnerabilities can be identified and corrected early in the development stage, significantly reducing product launch risks.

The Practical Benefits of Automation — For All of Us

① Time and Cost Reduction

Automating manual setup, repetitive measurement, and data processing reduces the time and labor required for certification or quality inspection.

② High Repeatability & Reliability

Automated procedures and consistent test configurations minimize variability between tests and ensure reliable results.

③ Suitable for High-Volume / Repetitive Testing

Efficiently supports repeated tests across various frequencies, transmitter types, and wiring harness combinations—particularly valuable for pre-compliance testing.

④ Enhanced Market Entry and Certification Capability

Performing tests internally according to international standards reduces dependence on external certification bodies. This accelerates product development and improves market responsiveness.

⑤ Increased Trust from Customers and Partners

Systematic, precise EMC measurement ensures product quality and stability, strengthening trust among B2B partners and end users.

Why Automated EMC Measurement Has Become a Necessity

As digitalization, wireless communication expansion, and the adoption of electric and connected devices accelerate, our surrounding environment grows increasingly complex.
EMI between devices or sensitivity to external electromagnetic waves has become a critical factor not only for product quality but also for overall stability, reliability, and safety.
Therefore, EMC compliance is essential for all electronic devices—from consumer products and automotive components to industrial systems.

However, traditional manual EMC/EMI testing requires extensive setup, repeated measurements, data collection and analysis, and reporting—leading to significant time, cost, and operator-dependent variability. In today’s fast-paced development cycles, such manual approaches can become major obstacles.

In this context, automated electromagnetic measurement solutions have emerged as a core capability for securing product competitiveness and market agility.
Automation eliminates errors from repetitive manual configuration, standardizes measurement and analysis procedures, and enhances reliability. It shortens the test cycle, reduces labor and operational expenses, and lowers development costs and timelines.

Especially in B2B markets—where multiple products must be tested rapidly—suppliers equipped with automated EMC certification and verification systems gain a definitive competitive advantage.

Furthermore, automated systems enable efficient pre-compliance testing across diverse conditions and variables, helping identify electromagnetic issues early in the design phase. This reduces design risks and prevents costly delays, recalls, or certification failures before market release.

Thus, in today’s technological environment and market demands, automated EMC measurement is no longer optional—it is essential. The role of EMC testing partners who support product stability, reliability, and market readiness has become increasingly crucial.

Secure Competitiveness Through Automated Electromagnetic Measurement

With the growing number and complexity of electronic devices, and as regulations and certification requirements become stricter, EMC/EMI testing is no longer optional.

However, if test procedures are overly complex and costly, they can hinder speed and efficiency and even delay market entry.

Therefore, ERETEC’s automated electromagnetic measurement solutions go far beyond technical convenience—they are strategic assets that simultaneously secure market competitiveness, quality assurance, customer trust, and cost efficiency.
