Why Fully Automated Test Solutions Dominate Transformer Factories

Transformers are crucial machines that help electricity to be transported safely from one location to another. Granted, transformers are difficult to make since they have to operate well for a long time and should not fail. It is a big part of the factory’s business to test each transformer meticulously. At Nankee, we understand the powerful difference that fully automated test solutions bring to transformer factories. When machines alone diagnose transformer testing with scant human prompting, the process becomes faster, safer and more accurate. In this way, all transformers leaving the factory are of the highest quality. Manual checks are okay, but can give way to little problems that lead to bigger troubles down the line. So now, Nankee’s completely automated testing systems are redefining how quality control is done in transformer factories and are contributing to the creation of even better and stronger transformers. 

How Full Automation Testing Is Making Transformers Better and More Reliable? 

When tested by hand, transformers can take a long time and sometimes be difficult if humans miss tiny problems or make errors. With this fully automated testing, machines perform all the work, paying scrupulous attention to every detail. For instance, an automatic measurement system can measure voltage, current and resistance in a transformer within minutes, but hours would be required to perform measurements manually. These systems perform the tests exactly alike every time, so no test ever grows less accurate. At Nankee, we discover how this makes it possible to catch even the smallest defects that could beget a transformer tester failure down the line, when it is out in real life. Think of a small crack that a human overlooking it does not notice; the automated system can spot such crack, since it uses sensors and cameras that see what eyes cannot. And as a bonus, automated tests do not tire or become inattentive like humans, so the quality of the test remains high all day long. This maintains the transformers dependable and safe for customers who require them. 

Why Fully Automatic Test Systems are Ideal for Transformer Manufacturers? 

This would be an almost impossible task without Tesla technology, because transformer factories are confronted with many challenges: manufacturing a large number of units quickly and guaranteeing that each works perfectly. Nankee’s fully automated test systems really help address some of the deficiencies you encounter with manual testing. For one, they streamline the entire testing process. And instead of waiting for workers to plug in wires, and read results, the machines do it all themselves. This reduces waiting time and allows factories to produce more transformers in a day. Time is money, and quicker tests mean lower costs and higher profits. Second is that it reduces the potential for human error. Humans can get tired or distracted leading to errors, or missed tests. Machines simply don’t do that. In addition, as all test results are stored in a machine’s memory, discerning the history of operation for each transformer resistance test is simple. This makes it easy for factories to keep good records and look back if something goes wrong later. Third, it’s safer to let machines do the testing. Some tests are performed around high voltage or heavy equipment that could be hazardous to humans. 

Cost Savings with Fully Automated Test Solutions for Large Volume Transformer Manufacture

And, in large factories where transformers are fabricated, saving money is of the upmost priority. Transformers are devices that transform electrical force from one voltage to another, and they need to be tested thoroughly so you can be sure that they will work well and safely. Fully automated test solutions, such as those offered by Nankee help in that regard immensely because then the cost can be curtailed. First, automation tests are many times faster than people running the tests by hand. When machines do the testing, they are able to test a lot of transformers in short order and without taking breaks or making mistakes. This speed translates into the factory’s ability to produce more transformers over a given period of time, reducing the cost to make each one. And in addition, automated testing means that relatively few individuals need to perform tests. 

Why There Is A Trend for the Fully Automatic Test Solutions for Transformer Manufacturing Industry? 

The production of transformers is going through a lot of changes, and one of the major trends is increasing level of automation in the test equipment. What Nankee (and other companies that manufacture similar products) offers is becoming more and more popular, because it benefits the factories building transformers in a number of ways. One big reason they are popular is that the demand for transformers is rising rapidly. Homes, businesses and power grids need more and bigger transformers. To meet this demand, factories need to churn out transformers more quickly without compromising on quality. Automated testing is a good way for factories to meet this requirement and quickly check the transformers accurately. One reason for the trend is that technology has gotten better and easier to use. At Nankee, smart computers, sensors and software are combined in automated test systems that can run many tests simultaneously.
