Devtank Ltd is an open source test and measurement company. Our business is split into four core focus groups, product design, consultancy, training and test facilities.

Our focus and expertise is in providing comprehensive production test, measurement and automation solutions using a talent pool of hardware and software experts. Our approach is to provide solutions driven by innovation which make use of existing open source technology where possible to provide game changing productivity and long term support. Our strengths are the ability to provide end to end products which cover electronics hardware, mechanical, software and systems design disciplines. We often get involved in customers product design projects at an early stage and are able to offer our expert design services, manufacturing and test knowledge to ensure the product can be manufactured and tested in volume successfully.

As an open source company we pride ourselves in providing all source code and design files to our customers. We support and promote the use of open source software and offer dedicated training courses to suit your needs.

In terms of hardware our core skills revolve around the ability to develop bespoke test, measurement and control products which offer uncompromising performance. In terms of software we have the talent to turn your ideas into a cross platform polished user interface whilst having the skills to develop the low level drivers which communicate with the hardware we design.

Our software is typically based around the stable Linux open source environment and as such lends itself to a flexible end product.

We can provide you with a completely open platform on which you can build upon and develop further or we can give you a closed product fully managed and supported by us. Whatever your requirements please ask us for a free consultation.

We welcome interest in any projects you might be considering and we relish engineering challenges. Support is paramount here at Devtank and we believe in looking after all our customers on a one to one basis. Rest assured our commercial agreements with you will be honoured and treated with total discretion.
