Customer:
A leading European provider of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) sensor solutions
Industry:
Industrial IoT (IIoT), Predictive Maintenance
Initial Requirements:
The client planned to develop a core temperature monitoring module for its next-generation industrial equipment condition monitoring sensor. However, the client's team initially struggled to decide between Platinum Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) and NTC temperature sensors, unsure which technical solution would best meet the stringent requirements of their end application in terms of accuracy, cost, and size.
Core Challenges:
Unclear technical selection, requiring professional guidance.
Extremely high demand for long-term stability across a wide temperature range (-40°C to +125°C).
Miniaturized packaging to fit compact device spaces.
Our Solution
Faced with the client's challenges, we did not rush to provide a quotation but initiated a professional solution process:
In-Depth Needs Analysis:
Our engineering team held multiple transcontinental meetings with the client's R&D personnel to gain a detailed understanding of their end application scenarios, accuracy requirements, power consumption budget, installation methods, and target costs.
Technical Solution Clarification and Selection:
Based on the discussions, we provided a detailed Technical Selection Analysis Report. The report highlighted that while RTDs offer high accuracy, they come with higher costs and more complex signal conditioning circuits. In contrast, the NTC solution fully met the client's accuracy requirements within the specified temperature range, offering significant advantages such as cost-effectiveness, fast response, and ease of integration. The report successfully persuaded the client to adopt the customized NTC solution.
Customized Design and Solution Confirmation:
We provided initial drafts of various solutions, including epoxy resin packaging and ultra-thin stainless steel tube packaging, and recommended the optimal R25 and B value combinations.
After several rounds of modifications addressing packaging form, cable length, and connector type, all technical parameters were finalized.
Sample Verification and Rapid Response:
Upon receiving the sample order, we completed prototyping within three weeks and arranged international express delivery. The samples exceeded the client's expectations in terms of response speed, accuracy, and mechanical strength.
Cooperation Results and Value Delivered
The collaboration achieved immediate results:
Precise Product Match:
The customized NTC sensor perfectly met the client's device requirements, achieving an optimal balance between performance and cost.
Successful Sample Validation:
The client's high satisfaction with the samples directly led to the placement of the first small-batch production order.
Establishment of Long-Term Trust:
Building on the trust established during the initial collaboration, the client chose us again as their NTC temperature sensor supplier for a new project, initiating a second customized cooperation.
