System Design

The unique module concept of Softing Measurement Technology (SMT) enables optimal adaptation to the individual demands of the automotive, railway, commercial vehicle and manufacturing industries. Accuracy, sturdiness and a high level of system stability provide reliable support in all phases of test execution.

Softing Measurement Technology can be scaled to virtually any degree. Its modularity is in no way limited to measurement and communication channels. Fundamental system characteristics such as energy supply, cooling and computing power can be flexibly adapted to suit the individual use scenario. And thanks to intelligent networking possibilities, even decentral test equipment is easy to set up over large spatial distances.

At the same time, Softing Measurement Technology is geared to the best possible integration. Due to the sophisticated housing mechanism means the systems only ever grow to the minimum size required for a particular function scope.
