Error-free sorting
Throughout the poling process, the system detects a series of parameters, such as leakage currents. This lets you keep an eye on the quality of the poling process itself. Any defective components are deactivated so they no longer affect the poling process for the remaining, intact components. Following the poling process, you can perform a series of final function tests for capacity or polarity, for example. The system performs an automatic pass/fail analysis and displays the results, so the operator can sort the actuators without errors. In addition, the system saves the results of the individual measurements and can provide them for further analyses.
Individual sample holder
Every Polaron system is built around the sample holder, which can be tailored individually to your requirements. In the standard variant for actuators with small electrodes like bimorph actuators, the holder features a drawer system. Here, the actuators are placed on specially developed sample magazines. These are coded with the corresponding contact pin allocation on the respective drawers. This prevents the actuators becoming accidentally mixed up. The magazines and contact pin layout can be customized to fit the respective sample geometry. The loaded magazines are loaded into the drawer, before being automatically contacted. There is also a contact test before the actual poling process, along with the standard safety functions. For example, it is only possible to open the sample drawers once the discharge voltage falls below a set level. All systems are CE certified.
