Measuring Instruments for the Automotive Industry

End-of-line inspection, design validation, batch qualification: Capelec provides manufacturers, equipment suppliers, and subcontractors with reliable, reproducible, and traceable instruments—designed and manufactured in France—that can be adapted to your production environment.

Measurement Solutions Integrated into Industrial Processes

Manufacturers, equipment suppliers, and subcontractors: industrial players need reliable measurements at very different stages of their production chain—design validation, end-of-line inspection, batch qualification, and endurance testing.

Our instruments are well-suited for these applications because they are designed for repeated and documented use, and because we have full control over their electronics and software—and thus their integration into an existing production environment.

Reproducibility and traceability

In an industrial context, an isolated result has little value: what matters is the ability to reproduce the measurement under the same conditions and to keep a record of it.

Integration with existing systems

Our in-house expertise in software and electronic circuit boards allows us to tailor data exchanges to your production or quality control tools, rather than imposing a closed system.

A culture of end-of-line inspection

We apply to our own production what we sell: our ISO 9001-certified quality system relies on an end-of-line inspection that checks and validates each device before shipment.

Adaptability

An industrial requirement is defined by the quantity to be measured, the expected accuracy, the throughput, and integration constraints.

Our engineering department designs the mechanical components, electronics, and embedded software in-house. It is this integration that makes the customizations required by these projects possible—such as a specific test bench configuration, a data interface, or a particular measurement procedure.

A significant portion of our business is dedicated to research and development, in collaboration with universities and research institutes specializing in pollution control, lighting, and embedded electronics technologies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Capelec adapt equipment to meet industrial needs?

Yes. Capelec’s engineering department designs the mechanical components, measurement electronics, optics, and embedded software in-house. This integration enables the customizations required by industrial projects: a specific test bench configuration, a data interface, or a particular measurement procedure.

Are the measurements reproducible and traceable?

Capelec instruments are designed for repeated and documented use. In-house software development allows us to adapt data exchange to your production or quality control tools, rather than imposing a closed system.

What equipment is used for end-of-line inspection?

The CAP2900 robotic headlight adjuster is designed for end-of-line inspections; brake, suspension, and skid test stands, along with emissions analyzers, complement the inspections depending on the product being manufactured.

Is Capelec’s production certified?

Yes. Capelec’s industrial organization is ISO 9001:2015 certified, and each device is inspected and validated at the end of the production line before shipment.
