Signatone S-1080 Thermal Controller
Calibrated precision is sustained with high performance, low noise power solutions
- The Integrated Signatone Thermal System Probing Solution is the Obvious Choice
For more than 50 years Signatone has developed and manufactured thermal chuck systems to meet the ever-evolving demands and test criteria for you- our customers. Understanding the devices to be tested, mounted, and probed is key to designing a highly accurate, integrated thermal system.
With our engineering and production team working together, utilizing 3D drawings and our extensive in-house machine shop, Signatone has a great advantage in building, integrating, and testing our thermal probing solutions - all under one roof. This saves everyone time and money, alleviates miscommunication and results in faster deliveries and better system integration.
