A healthy trade show in Paris, France

What stands higher on the agenda: the condition of equipment or people? The answer might surprise you! At the European Microwave Week in Paris this week, three of our technical consultants invited professionals to discuss this subject at our stand.

Marc Le Roy (left in the photo): “The stand’s theme was ‘No More Dirty Chambers’, a concept we have used this year at several trade shows and symposiums to introduce our new dust-free absorbers. We distributed Comtest hand gels and explanatory infographics as a teaser to emphasise our mission for clean and safe working environments.”

Vincent van de Vrie (middle in the photo): “The hand sanitisers are pretty popular and help us start a conversation with professionals, and almost everyone recognises the problem of absorbers leaking particles and leaving a layer of dust in the testing chambers and on their clothes and shoes. But what surprises us most is that more people seem to have concerns regarding the effects of potentially hazardous chemicals on the measuring equipment than for themselves. We have only spoken to a few dozen professionals here in Paris so that the results might be subjective. Still, we will keep exploring new worry-free solutions for a clean and healthy working environment.”

If you are interested in the DMAS Absorbers, contact Vincent van de Vrie, Marc Le Roy or Uliana Trucchi (right in the photo). They can help you keep equipment and yourself safe, healthy and accurate.

Big doors, a big challenge for packaging and transportation

How does a 4.2×4-meter door fit in the box in the photo? “It’s not only a challenge for packaging but also transportation,” explains Arjan Nederstigt. His colleagues Ron Ligtvoet, Ferruh Saribas, and Miguel Gobardhan join him in ensuring that all purchases are sent safely and soundly to our clients. One of the things that sets us apart from other manufacturers is that our doors are shipped in one piece after being thoroughly tested in our workshop so our team can install the doors fast and worry-free anywhere in the world. The challenge that comes with shipping completely assembled doors is their size.”

An eye for perfection

According to our welding specialist Sebastiaan Koopmans, finishing an RF-shielded door requires special skills: “A regular household door fits into a wooden or metal frame. The ‘knives’ on our doors need to fit exactly into the copper ‘fingers’ of the door frame after welding the parts together. Therefore, they must be sharp but not too sharp to wear the copper fingers. Just like a good kitchen knife. I test the welding edges of the door knives manually but safely: when they feel smooth enough, they get my green light.”

Our services include maintenance and validated testing. We recommend that both are executed by authorized personnel only. Our expert teams can perform preventive maintenance on RF-shielded doors, mode-stirrer systems, and positioning equipment such as turntables. We also offer validation services to see if your EMC test chamber or RF-shielded room still functions within its intended limits and avoiding unexpected down-time or product recalls at the same time.

A shielded room can perform conducted emission and immunity EMC measurements, eliminating harmful external influences, leading to more accurate and consistent test results. Being a Faraday cage, a shielded room will not only improve test results but will also form an excellent aid in protecting information and essential hardware. Comtest can assist governments, the military, financial institutions, and large corporations in protecting what matters most in critical situations. We offer the highest quality, sensitivity, and security before, during and after working with you.
