NPD roadmap
Our NPD team are currently working on several exciting new projects, some of which are still classified. Here are the ones we are allowed to talk about:
COMBINED FIBRE COPPER TESTING
More systems are making use of hybrid cables and connectors, where copper and fibre are combined in a single cable assembly. Requirement is growing for a automatic test system with both electrical and optical test capability.
We're working on a system that combines the two functions in a single, compact COTS test system controlled by our MKAT software.
AUTOMEG 4.0 - NEW GENERATION HARDWARE
We’re excited to say the next generation of wire & cable harness test system is in development.
Drawing on 30 years of ATE experience, our next gen systems will be more compact, offer greater testing functionality, and will be modular and flexible to ensure the system can be configured to suit your specific testing demands.
NEW BLTU-4C AND BLRT-4C MODELS
Introducing the 4C models; the next generation in our family of automatic bond, loop and joint testers.
BLRT-4C and BLTU-4C are both in the final stages of development, and are due to reach the market later this year.
The new models will be smaller, whilst achieving the same measurements. Legacy test programs will be convertible for 4C models.
