Computer-assisted test benches

Drawing on years of experience with purely mechanical test benches, MENZL developed the computer-assisted Multicheck I between 1987 and 1989. It was the first computer-assisted test bench to be developed and manufactured in Europe. Multicheck I was sold in large numbers, and the Multicheck test benches springing from it have proved very popular as well. It is certainly remarkable that even many of the first-generation Multicheck test benches are still in use today. This is an impressive testament not only to the quality of the mechanics and the software but also to our commitment to providing replacement parts and after-sales service on a long-term basis.

All of our computer-assisted test benches are equipped with electronic pressure transducers. Hence, the data recorded during testing can be analysed and managed by means of the feature-packed yet easy-to-use Equipment Management program, which is included in the scope of delivery.
