Specialist for customised solutions
WECO realises customer-specific developments on request and guarantees fast and flexible project implementation.
The first step in such a project is to draw up a specification sheet in which all relevant information is
collected. In addition to the dimensions, this includes, for example, loads such as voltage, current strength,
or mechanical stress as well as the resulting heating, possible environmental influences such as temperature,
the effect of gases or liquids and much more.
