Test bench

Precision in the service of measurement

Without an accurate power supply, no measurement is reliable. Our solutions deliver clean, constant and calibrated power — essential for quality control and for validating your equipment.

Perfectly repeatable results, under controlled conditions.

The heart of the bench

The rectifier at the heart of the test bench

On a test bench, everything starts with the power supply. The rectifier produces and controls the current flowing through the equipment under test: it is what makes the test reliable, repeatable and safe. Here is what it brings, module by module.

Calibrated power source

The rectifier supplies the bench with clean, calibrated DC voltage and current to power the equipment under test under perfectly defined conditions — the basis of any reliable measurement.

Load simulation

By imposing a controlled current, it reproduces the real load the product will face in service, to validate its behaviour under stress before commissioning.

Endurance testing

Able to hold constant power for hours without drift, it makes long-duration tests possible: running-in, accelerated ageing and long-term reliability validation.

Programmable profiles

Programmable current or voltage ramps, plateaus and cycles, to replay real-life usage scenarios and automate repeatable test sequences.

Measurement & acquisition

Accurate readout of the voltage and current actually delivered, usable to characterise, trace and document every test — from quality control to the validation report.

Test safety

Built-in limits and protection (overload, short circuit, cut-off) to protect both the equipment under test and the operator, including during limit testing.
