EMC Europe seems busier than ever. What’s going on? We spoke to Marc Le Roy and Uliana Trucchi, two of our Technical Consultants, who are at our trade show booth in Prague.
We have updated our online portfolio of EMC chambers to include the five most popular shielded EMC test chambers. Next to 10 Anechoic and 5 Reverberation Chambers, clients can find the 20 most popular EMC chambers on our website, including product pages with technical specs and PDF downloads.
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.

Why is Comtest Engineering founder Hein de Groot holding a table tennis bat in this 1988 photo? This year, we are celebrating our 40th anniversary, and every five weeks, we share a bit of Comtest’s history.
Hein de Groot: “I started the company in a small office in my home, but in 1989, we needed to move to a real office building. I wanted to increase our brand awareness in the region, so I asked a friend who works in sports journalism for advice. Soon, we discovered that big sports require big budgets, and he told me that table tennis in the Netherlands is gaining popularity and is more affordable.”
At the time, Dutch table tennis legend Bettine Vriesekoop, born near the Comtest office, became the European Champion in 1982, igniting the sport’s popularity.
Hein: “We asked Holland’s number two player, fellow Olympic competitor, and 14-time Dutch champion, Mirjam Kloppenburg, to work for us and join the local table tennis club, Scylla Leiden. We created a magazine called Matchpoint, for which we designed a logo featuring a bat for the letter “O” and a line representing a bouncing ping pong ball, as a variant of our first company logo. Of course, we placed a table in the office, and sometimes visiting clients challenged Mirjam to a game. They stood no chance against her…”
