“We were experiencing field
failures caused by defective transformers provided by
another supplier. We asked Endicott’s design
team for help and we got it!”
A manufacturer of sophisticated switching
systems relied upon a transformer’s ability to sense
line voltage, maintain a constant secondary output, and
withstand up to 4000 volt surges. The transformer
in use prior to ECC’s involvement could not perform
under these conditions. After conferring with the ECC engineering
staff, a critical change employing a 2 bobbin design was
initiated. When combined
with a unique insulating system, the new design eliminated
the problems.
These
measures, coupled with our closely controlled manufacturing
process, have yielded over 60,000 units without a failure.
"Our existing solenoid did not work. We were faced with an extensive redesign program and retooling costs. Endicott Coil Company solved the problems and gave us fast, cost effective solutions."
A provider of fire door closers needed
a solenoid which was small enough to use in an existing
enclosure but required more holding force and much more
reliability than the one currently being used. By closely
examining and testing the device, we found the materials
and machining tolerances were not adequate. We determined
the coil was not powerful enough. Based
on our recommendations, the materials were changed, machining
tolerances improved, and an improved winding technique was
employed.
As
a result, we achieved greater ampere turns within the same
coil outline to deliver a highly dependable solenoid with
substantially better holding force, and can be produced without
incurring retooling costs.
"Endicott's total capabilities not only solved a serious quality problem but saved us money, too."
A manufacturer of lighting used in explosive
environments needed a 7KV pulse transformer with maximum
reliability, safety, and ability to withstand the rigors
of extreme environments. ECC
engineers designed a new transformer utilizing high temperature
and high dielectric materials. Subsequently,
we discovered the transformer would be used in conjunction
with an electronic circuit. With some redesigning we
were able to offer a total package, encompassing a customized
UL-insulating system without the need to ship parts to another
assembly house.
The
result is a 100% successful product. |
