Factory Acceptance Testing
Factory acceptance testing (FAT) (sometimes referred to as factory acceptance inspection) helps to verify that newly manufactured machinery meets the intended purpose for the end user. The factory acceptance test validates the functionality and operation of the equipment and gives confidence to the customer.
