Robust Production Test Systems for the Defense Industry

For decades, Prevas has developed production test systems for complex electronics, radio and microwave technology, and communication solutions. At our Gävle office in Sweden, we have a team of senior engineers – many with over 20 years of experience in both product development and production testing.

"Every day, we work with advanced electronics, and we know what it takes to build tailored, stable, and reliable test systems," says Magnus Benedicto, Business Area Manager at Prevas. "Our experience allows us to contribute with not only technical expertise but also a holistic perspective throughout the development process."

These projects are characterized by high technical complexity, which places strong demands on planning and execution. Using well-established methods and proven working practices, Prevas takes full responsibility for the entire process – from requirements specification to a complete test solution.

Tailored Solutions That Meet High Demands

The defense industry has strict requirements for both longevity and reliability. This means that test systems must verify everything from electronics and communication to the robustness of complete subsystems, across multiple stages of the production process. Clear demands are also placed on documentation, traceability, and secure information handling.

"It's rarely the technology itself that poses the greatest challenge – more often, it's the process and the surrounding requirements," says Joakim Westman, Project Manager at Prevas’ Karlskoga office. "That’s where our well-established structures and ways of working give our customers real peace of mind."

In development projects, Prevas adapts to the customer’s processes, works within their system environment, and ensures that all documentation and methodologies comply with relevant guidelines and standards.

Cross-Functional Expertise Behind Every Test System

Prevas brings together knowledge from across the company’s technical areas and offices throughout the Nordics to ensure the right team is in place for every project – whether it involves electronics, mechanics, radio technology, or measurement systems.

“One of our greatest strengths is the collective expertise and experience we’ve built up,” says Magnus Benedicto. “By collaborating across regions, we can match the right skills to each project and deliver robust test systems. We take full responsibility – from development and installation to verification, training, and long-term support.”

The defense industry is growing. Production is accelerating, and demands for quality assurance, traceability, and security are increasing. Prevas’ experience in other regulated and technically advanced industries – such as MedTech, industrial automation and electronics – means that many of the processes and working methods needed in the defense sector are already in place.

With senior technical expertise, proven methods, and a strong culture of collaboration, Prevas is a strategic partner in a sector where precision, security, and reliability are critical.
