Automotive manufacturers investing in Industry 4.0 value the ability to easily scale production lines and test equipment, while being able to facilitate both high and low mix production. Electronic communication within and between machines is essential and programmable power supplies are often used to enhance that flexibility.

Although the digitally controlled TDK-Lambda’s Z+ series of programmable power supplies do not require calibrating, one large automotive manufacturer requested a DAkkS calibration certificate with each power supply. This was provided locally from Nemko. The 800W Z+ model chosen is capable of delivering 0-20V and 0-40A and also has multiple standard programming and monitoring interfaces, including USB, RS232/485, analogue and front panel controls.

TDK-Lambda offers a wide range of Programmable Power Supplies for industrial, test and measurement applications.
