This is the first time we have worked with Cranage. We needed to perform a less common test and our traditional supplier was unable to help. We found Cranage from a general internet search and our experience from that initial contact through to receiving the final report has all been very positive. The facilities are impressive and the team friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. An all-round great service and we will use you again. Thanks.

The team really make sure they put the personal touch on everything they do and take time to get right first time.

Where this machinery contains electrical or electronic parts that may generate or be affected by electromagnetic disturbance the EMC directive (2014/30/EU) also applies.
The experience, knowledge and testing carried out Cranage EMC testing Ltd. to harmonised EN standards has proved invaluable to our clients.

As academics exploring the transfer of a prototype to a product, for a large multinational, for the first time, we were rather anxious as to the whole CE marking process. Mark and his team at Cranage, gently and skilfully guided us through the whole pre-compliance process, providing insightful and instructive solutions to any issues raised. I would certainly recommend that others consider using Cranage and their state-of-the art facility.

I wish to express my genuine thanks for the way you and your team managed our recent product safety testing. In particular I was impressed by the team’s professionalism and with the high level of support and practical advice we received. Cranage EMC Testing will continue to be 4Links’ test house of choice.

During the course of testing you identified a ‘spike’ which did not affect statutory compliance. With your advice, in conjunction with our electronics people, we modified the circuit board to eliminate this spike. The reliability of the circuit board was dramatically improved as a result and we believe was a significant contributor to the general exceptional reliability of our product. This reliability has had as you may imagine a direct effect on sales. We have commented on several occasions that, unlike the taxman, you have given us added value and a return on our investment’.

‘I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and Cranage for your expertise over the last two years. Without doubt, as a result of your knowledge, our product designs have advanced significantly. Aside, our customer who has requested TUVus was in our office on Monday of this week. They saw the unit and expressed how pleased they were with Cranage’s work to complete the approvals process. Before working with Cranage, I investigated several test houses. You may be assured that Cranage is offering a first rate service and I would be pleased to be able to recommend Cranage to others’.
