Calmar One - the PLC-based control concept for furniture and component testing

Convenient operation for simple testing tasks

The PLC-based Calmar One control concept enables test configurations with up to six test axes. It is designed for simple operation and use and for equipping the test rigs with pneumatic axes. In addition to durability tests, dynamic and static load tests, functional tests and simulations of the product life cycle can also be carried out.

Calmar one furniture testing systems/component testing systems - key features and characteristics

Extremely easy handling via touch display directly on the test rig with application-orientated user interface
Fast loading of preconfigured standard-based and customised test procedures
Freely configurable test sequences and test axes
Online visualisation (real-time graphics/values) on the touch display
Data export interface - Data recording configurable - Export option (*.csv) to PC
Optional automated test report
Various test modules possible: alternating bending, rotation test, drop test, linear movement
Control cabinet with centralised compressed air and power supply - Low noise levels during operation thanks to fully insulated housing
Separate operating interface with touch display
