Clean room warehousing technology:
Megamat supplies state-of-the-art warehousing system to Rohde & Schwarz.

Extremely high demands are made when it comes to storing highly sensitive electrical components for printed circuit boards. Only a few specialists can offer storage systems for such applications. One of these specialists is the ware housing system manufacturer Megamat from Neuburg/Kammel, who supplied two innovative Megasys Dry storage systems to Rohde & Schwarz.

Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co. KG, an international measuring, information and instrumentation company, uses the Megasys Dry storage systems primarily to keep components and spare parts for automotive printed circuit boards in a dry atmosphere for a period of three to maximum ten years. The latest requirements demand that these hygrosco pic parts are stored in dry rooms. Othmar Muhr, head of component production at Rohde & Schwarz: "In the past, we had to store the parts in nitrogen boxes with humidity of 15% and a high nitrogen consumption rate, but now we can keep to a constant humidity of 5%“. The system even undercuts the stipulations for humidity.
