HASS - Highly Accelerated Stress Screen
To find manufacturing and production process induced defects, many companies use HASS testing before those products are released to market. HASS testing can be a powerful testing tool for improving a product’s reliability, and help to reduce warranty costs while increasing customer satisfaction.
Once a product has undergone HALT, HASS can be used as part of the production process. The goal of a HASS test is to induce failure modes that can be inherent or introduced in the production process. HASS testing will serve as an effective method to find screening failures that may have gone undetected in the burn-In testing process during production. A product that passes normal production tests but fails in a HASS would have probably failed early after product release, and thus increasing warranty costs.
In this diagram ESS (Environmental Stress Screening) is referenced to show its ineffectiveness against product to be shipped.
CVG Strategy can implement and integrate a HASS Program once HALT has been concluded, and help to improve your production reliability dramatically.
