When Lyra Electronics expanded their facilities, they wanted the best tools available to stay ahead of the power curve.
The company pride themselves on being power electronics and control specialists. Key to their offering is the ability to develop cutting edge solutions for customers, from concept to production.
Many of their projects have achieved ground breaking results, such as helping a client beat the EV land speed record. In order to maintain this technological prowess, Lyra Electronics continually invest in the best test equipment around.
High end engineering often moves incredibly quickly, with no two projects ever the same. So it is important that test equipment is able to not only be flexible, but also future proof.
After careful consideration, Lyra Electronics purchased a LAB-GSS system. Each unit can operate as either a DC source or load. A comprehensive range of hardware and software features make the system best in class.
Each unit is modular, meaning that users can arrange systems in various series, parallel or matrix configurations. The modules all operate independently, allowing systems to be reconfigured for different projects.
Dr Pete James, Director at Lyra Electronics, said “The LAB-GSS gives us all the flexibility we need. As engineering is so varied, it’s vital our test equipment can meet any possible future requirement”.
The initial project for the LAB-GSS was to develop an airport baggage loader, powered by an electric motor. Currently, most of the world’s baggage loaders are powered by diesel generators.
