Cut-down prices for CPCI
Europac Integral offers all the benefits of a standard CPCI system including high stability, robustness and EMC shielding but at a far-reduced cost.
The advantage to customers is that they will be supplied with a fully integrated system with coordinated components from a single source.
"We have been implementing comprehensive integration projects in enclosure technology for some time now, for example within the electronics, automation and ICT markets.
As part of these projects we integrate all the key basic modules of an electronic packaging system, such as backplanes, air conditioning, power supplies, EMC measures, cabling and cabinet monitoring, in an enclosure or cabinet", comments Eric Guiol, Vice President Sales and Marketing at Pentair Enclosures Group Europe.
"In the past, however, we were not able to handle such projects in the numbers increasingly being required especially by many telecommunications applications.
This is because our production capacities are mainly geared to mass production in the mechanical sector, eg for subracks.
Backplane production, on the other hand, was limited until now.
As far as we're concerned, CTS Interconnect Systems is the ideal partner for jointly realising large-scale projects".
The co-operative alliance will focus on the development and production of customer-specific solutions, with the two companies sharing their global resources in order to deliver the best possible service, predominantly to the European, US, Chinese, Japanese and Brazilian markets.
Pentair Enclosures and CTS Interconnect Systems are currently working closely on a number of projects.
Consideration is also being given to including additional members in the partnership alliance.
