Flexible testing of heating elements
| Contents | |
| How can we test heating elements economically in small batches with a high degree of product variance at the manufacturing plant? This was the question confronting the manufacturer's specialists when they decided on a one-stop supplier who could provide the test technology, including the necessary software solution, and the workstation, as a complete package. ELABO was able to fulfil all these requirements and recently delivered an all-in-one solution: a robust test workstation with a work surface capable of withstanding high temperatures. The considerable dimensions – the system is approx. 3 metres wide and more than 2.2 metres tall – of the workstation were the least of the challenges facing the specialists in Crailsheim. In addition to the various individual modules – some of which are networked with computers – made up of ELABO modular system kits, a software solution which integrates the system into the customer's existing EDP landscape was also developed.
