At DATRON,
we build tools that help you measure just about anything. Anywhere in the world. |
Since its establishment in 1981, Datron has maintained its position as one of the world's foremost designers and manufacturers of sensors and data acquisition systems for the dynamic vehicle testing and development industries. From its earliest beginnings over 25 years ago, with its introduction of the first ever non-contact optical sensor - to its latest innovations in test-stand development, Datron remains on the cutting-edge of vehicle testing technology.
Today, Datron supplies a complete range of instrumentation products and systems-based solutions designed to meet virtually any testing requirement. Complete solutions, serviced and supported by over 100 automotive and testing specialists in major facilities around the world.
Datron's offering includes: optical, microwave, non-contact, mechanical and geometrical sensors; data acquisition and evaluation equipment; software and signal conditioning equipment, as well as a wide array of related accessory products.
With this complete family of products, Datron is able to acquire and evaluate almost any relevant variable of movement or position on virtually any vehicle platform in the world. This list ranges from motorcycles and cars, to heavy-duty trucks and rail transportation, to aerospace.
The company's ultimate goal is to help engineers design and build increasingly refined vehicles, by bringing higher standards of accuracy, increased reproducibility and ease of use to the tools they use - while at the same time shortening development cycles and reducing costs. As a result, Datron continues to push beyond the previous limits of technology.
For example, recent advancements in data acquisition and sensing technology developed in cooperation with Mercedes-Benz now make it possible for Datron to run highly accurate and reproducible test-stand simulations. Using this technology, vehicle development engineers can achieve the equivalent of several hundred thousand miles of road or track testing in less than a week.
And Datron's long-standing cooperative relationships with the automotive, aerospace, two-wheeled and rail vehicle industries, as well as other institutions including colleges of advanced technology, technical journals, research institutes, military test departments, inspection associations and public transport services serves as a considerable knowledge-base and source of inspiration to draw on well into the future.
In the area of customer support, Datron can meet any need in the area of service - offering programs tailored specifically to each individual application, from new system consulting, to the integration of components into existing systems, to set-up, calibration and even complete test program design and execution. To meet virtually any testing requirement - anywhere in the world.
