Apiro simulates testing of PCB units for electric vehicles

Streamlined Quality Control for Electric Vehicle PCB Testing with Apiro Joints

Quality control in the electric car industry demands precision and adaptability, especially when testing PCB units under simulated terrain conditions. During a customer test at the igus subsidiary in India, the performance of an electric vehicle’s ECU was evaluated. By replacing the large linear actuators previously used with 3 Apiro joints, the setup was significantly reduced in size without compromising on functionality. This demonstration highlights the efficiency and space-saving advantages Apiro joints bring to quality testing workflows.
