The anechoic chambers and shielded rooms from Albatross Projects and the company’s decades of experience combined with our products and expertise allow us to offer all-in-one solutions that meet our EMC customers’ requirements in all respects.” Rohde & Schwarz serves its North American customers in the field of systems und EMI products from Flower Mound, Texas. Rohde & Schwarz partner Albatross Projects Group has now set up a new subsidiary at this location: AP Americas. Local employees will be responsible for all activities related to the turnkey delivery of EMC test setups and on-site service. Timo Greiner, CEO of Albatross Projects GmbH and of AP Americas, points out: “The close proximity of Rohde & Schwarz and Albatross Projects has many advantages. We can produce locally, offer customer-oriented service and use the established Rohde & Schwarz sales network. Overall cooperation is simplified, which greatly benefits our customers.” Albatross Projects Group is a supplier of EMC systems, including absorber products, test chambers, RF chambers and microwave test systems.
