Successful controller upgrade at GDW

Discover our latest realization at GDW: the upgrade of their old controller to control 2 separate hydraulic fatigue test benches!

This upgrade was not only cost-effective, but also provided significant benefits to GDW. The existing mechanical housing was retained. Computing power, HMI, connectivity and measurement technology were taken to the next level using our UTMC solution. Thus, we provided GDW with an advanced and reliable solution that perfectly suited their needs.

The benefits of this upgrade are numerous:

  • Robust design and industrial durability
  • In-house developed software solution that makes you a master at controlling test benches and data processing without any programming knowledge.
  • Expandable and reconfigurable thanks to modular I/O design -> Possibility of expanding the controller to control other test benches, readout of additional sensors!
  • Integrated remote support
  • Windows 10 OS for easy installation of drives of additional hardware, connectivity to networks,...
  • Integrated sensor database for managing and distributing calibration data of all kinds of sensors.

 

All this makes the upgrade not only a wise investment, but also a future-proof solution for GDW!

Wouter Claeys, Head of Technical Services at GDW, testifies:
"At GDW, we had an urgent need to upgrade our two hydraulic fatigue test benches due to outdated software and insufficient computing power. Thanks to ESTL's thorough preparation, the conversion was completed within a week. We are very satisfied with the result and the professionalism of the team."
