Our Engineering Capabilities
DESIGN TOOLS
Rantec engineers utilize state-of-the-art software in the electrical and mechanical design / analysis stage of product development. Many of our customers utilize these same packages. Rantec has the ability to transmit / receive data in various formats, including STEP files as required.
LAB EQUIPMENT
Rantec's well-capitalized lab utilizes a variety of equipment, enabling real-world simulation and characterizing product performance. Our in-house anechoic chamber enables us to conduct several MIL-STD-461 tests. Other in-house capabilities include thermal and humidity chambers, AC/DC input simulation, load simulation, scopes, analyzers and more. In-house qualification test capabilities include vibration and shock, altitude, thermal cycle and shock, and temperature and humidity. This in-house capability significantly minimizes the risk of any surprises during qualification testing.
TEST EQUIPMENT
Rantec performs vibration testing in-house during design verification of our products. We also have a significant investment in thermal chambers that are used to produce a wide range of environmental conditions (temperature and altitude) at which we can evaluate product performance. Highlights include the ability to perform thermal shock testing by moving products via an elevator between two compartments of a dual chamber. Rantec utilizes this equipment in the design verification stage of development. We also subject every production unit to a burn-in cycle to screen for infant mortality.
