ICU tech GmbH Selects VectorCAST to Shorten IEC 62304 Compliance

Leading developer of electronic design services selects Vector Software's VectorCAST automated test platform for medical software certification and validation

PROVIDENCE, RI, Feb. 07, 2017 –  Vector Software, the world's leading provider of innovative software solutions for robust embedded software quality, announced today that VectorCAST has been selected by ICU tech to support IEC 62304 compliance and to automate testing activities across the company's software development lifecycle.

Headquartered in Bern, Switzerland, ICU tech GmbH is a leading hardware and software solutions provider for a variety of different sectors, including a dedicated department for medical technology. The company is certified according to ISO 9001 and ISO 13485.

Working closely with their customer Schaerer Medical, ICU tech uses VectorCAST for testing critical embedded software systems used in Schaerer's Mobile Operating Tables. These devices combine mechanics, hydraulics, and electronics into a state-of-the-art system for which the quality and security are key factors.

ICU tech chose the VectorCAST test automation platform for its advanced functionality and IEC 62304 certification.
