To increase output volume, global meter manufacturers are seeking solutions to modernize their production processes and enhance overall efficiency. MTE’s automatic test systems provide the answer for a sustainable increase in the testing volume of single- or three-phase meters while improving productivity.

MTE’s focus is on executing the critical processes and steps required for an efficient meter test system. To increase output volume, global meter manufacturers are seeking solutions to modernize their production processes and enhance overall efficiency. MTE’s automatic test systems provide the answer for a sustainable increase in the testing volume of single- or three-phase meters while improving productivity. Due to its comprehensive, flexible, and modular system components, MTE is able to deliver optimal, customer-oriented solutions for the volume production of meters. Whatever the needs and wherever the customers are located, MTE provides innovative solutions with a strong focus on contributing to the efficiency, profitability, and quality of its customers. For the substantial throughput of single- and three-phase meters (volume production), MTE recommends a horizontal alignment of the meters under test in an automatic test system. While the testing of the first batch of meters is in progress, a second batch can already be assembled on another sled. In addition, the more stable horizontal positioning and arrangement of the scanning heads means that readjustment is rarely required, which significantly increases the efficiency of the entire testing process. This configuration ensures a high degree of operational efficiency.
