OUR SERVICES R&D Broad product portfolio Product validation test laboratory Watt density requirements Material selection Physical design and optimization Integration Heaters Temperature sensors Flex circuits Components Heat sinks Assembly and Production One stop shop Heater forming - performance & physical Small series to Mass production Full service TEMPERATURE CONTROL Control and engergy balance Flexible foil heaters provide excellent thermal transfer where you need it most. Heaters are used in thermal control design to protect components under cold-case environmental conditions or to make up for heat that is not dissipated. It is usually necessary to arrange some form of control to ensure that the desired temperature is maintained. Heaters are used with thermostats, PTC, PT100/PT1000 sensors, thermocouples, solid-state or digital controllers to provide exact temperature control of a particular component Integrated control/smart heater The demands for smart simple solutions creates new applications and we can offer solutions with integrated thermal controllers and sensors communicating through RS232, WiFi or Zigbee. Typical applications Front view cameras Rear view cameras Side view cameras Back view cameras Night vision cameras

HEATING SOLUTIONS Vision System Applications Safety is important the ability to avoid collision when driving in the city or on the highway, daytime or at night. Vision systems are an important safety feature on a modern car. Mist, condensation or ice reduces the functionality, Backer Calesco provides heat for all systems. Front view camera heaters Assist the driver while driving in town (pedestrians) Assist the drive keeping distains to other cars Side view Assists the driver to change lane by watching the dead spot Rear view Assists the driver to reverse safely Parking Combines several cameras to assist when parking your car All systems needs heat to keep the lens free from moisture and ice to ensure a safe drive.
