[Technology – Thermistor manufacturing]

The intermediate test of PTC and NTC thermistors follows immediately after the leads have been soldered to the sensor discs. This is 100% testing of all products by a high speed computerised test system designed and built by ourselves. The special contact adaptor enables the thermistor discs to be contacted at a very great speed, thus drastically reducing test expenses. This intermediate step in our testing system identifies the validity of the soldering process. Subsequent steps in the manufacturing are dependant on the special application requirement of the thermistors and the mechanical and electrical protection called for.
