TÜV SÜD creates CE Marking & EMC Machinery Centre of Excellence
TV SD Product Service has invested 400,000 in its West Midlands laboratories to create a CE marking and EMC centre of excellence hub in the region. Based at Bearley, near Stratford-upon-Avon, the new laboratories will deliver EMC and Product Safety services which will support the CE marking and certification of machinery.
The investment has created one of the largest EMC and safety test facilities in the region. The three-metre semi-anechoic EMC chamber has doors 3.5m by 3m high, which will allow TV SD to test more substantial industrial equipment.
By combining the upgraded EMC test chamber with new large laboratories, tests can be completed more quickly, delivering machinery manufacturers a shorter time to market for new products and reduced testing costs. Within four years, TV SD aims to double its sales revenue and the size of its workforce of expert engineers.
Jean-Louis Evans, Managing Director of TV SD Product Service, says: "We have made this significant investment, as the combination of an EMC test chamber and laboratory of this scale is very rare. This means that TV SD can offer machinery manufacturers in the UK and Europe something unique, as demand for EMC testing of large-scale items and systems is increasing. The new facility means we are able to provide a faster test service that will positively impact our customers' product development process and time to market."
