Case Study: BQ boosts smartphone validation speed and quality with Hexagon Optiv Classic 432

BQ - Customer Case Study

BQ, a major European technology company, faced the challenge of validating its smartphones and other electronics with extreme precision and speed. Their Accelerated Life Testing process required a versatile and dynamic measurement system to analyze component tolerances as tight as 0.05mm and identify failures before product launches. To condense their analysis and reduce time to market, they turned to Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence for a solution.

Hexagon implemented its Optiv Classic 432 multisensor coordinate measuring machine. This system combined optical and touch-trigger probe sensors into a single, flexible platform, allowing BQ to perform a wide range of measurements more dynamically and precisely. For Hexagon, the results were decisive: validation time was drastically reduced and the failure rate in new product ranges progressively decreased. This ensured BQ could launch reliable, high-quality products faster in a highly competitive market.
