Throughout the years we gathered a wide range of references at different, mostly Tier1 automotive suppliers and OEMs. Some of our machines operating actually on the field are able to perform tests with helium test-gas at a pressure of 380 bar. In case of any special requirements, we would be pleased to develop a new solution for it.

We are able to develop our machines to the requirements of our customers (from the structure, through the adaptation, to the controlling software and the visualization), but we can offer our standard systems with our standard control software and HMI as well.

Some information regarding our systems features

  • Semi- and fully automated solutions
  • Test-gas at a pressure of 380 bar or higher
  • Exchangeable adaptation with or without identification of the fixture
  • Product identification, with presence sensors and manual or automatic barcode reading
  • Adaptation on the same position as the product will be adapted in the car. With O-ring sealing or with self-pressed rubber sealing - for less sealing exchange
  • All our machines have a (data storage capability) traceability system, but we can integrate our system to the customer’s MES

Fuel Tank Testers with integrated HRU

Semi-automatic system with manual adaptation. Integrated recovery unit with variable helium concentration

Compressor Tester Lines

Compressor Tester Lines

Fully automatic testing line integrated into a conveyor-based production line, with automatic changeover via servo units

Helium Recovery Units (HRU)

Helium Recovery Units (HRU)

Reduces the production expenses by recovering the helium test gas after the test cycle. Very efficient and has a low cost of ownership. Different concentration mixes can be set.

Leak detection systems

Our main profile is to design and manufacture helium leak detection systems. Most of our systems have one, or more vacuum chambers where the product(s) can be placed during the test. With the help of the vacuum chambers the helium pollution from the surroundings can be isolated and in this way the systems sensitive is becoming higher, identification of smaller leaks is easier and more stable.

Helium Recovery Units (HRU)

When the test-gas is released from the product at the end of the cycle, the used Helium gas will be waisted and thrown out (usually outside the facility through a exhaust pipeline). Our helium recovery unit ensures the possibility to reuse the test gas for multiple times. Another huge advantage is that the helium bottle or bundle completely can be emptied before exchanging it. Without the HRU at least the same pressure as your testing pressure will have to remain in the bottle when it has to be exchanged. We have these units in different sizes, but the concept is very similar.
