History of ultrasonic level measurement What do bats and EchoTREK have in common? Even after the onset of the transistor age, or later the appearance of integrated circuits, and even the later microcomputer era, was unable to bring about anything close to the little marvel of equipment used by those flying mammals, the bats. Actually, a similar echo-sounding technique is used by waterborne creatures such as dolphins, sharks, whales and the like to locate their prey. As a matter of fact, their „equipment” is likely to be even older than that of the bats – because being airborne creatures...

History of ultrasonic level measurement As the echoes find their way from the target back to the „sensor” of the bat, again a great reduction of power occurs, hence our little flying predator has to use its best „amplifier” and its top software algorithm to evaluate the tiny acoustic signal and find out the distance of its prey. Was the above the reason for the million or so years of delay before sea creatures started to creep out of water? Was this the reason that the bat did not go airborne until its air-to-air range-finder was developed to its perfection? If you ask me, the answer is...

We have a strong and loyal customer base served by 4 authorised...

Conquering the Middle Empire While the sales of our classical best seller EasyTREK and EchoTREK ultrasonic transmitter range produced a growth of 25% during the last 5 years the sales of our MicroTREK TDR level transmitters has tripled over the same period. The global trend of microwave level measuring technologies gaining an ever bigger share compared to all other level measurement methods is especially true for the Middle Empire. One consequence of China’s astonishing fast growth and development in the past decades is that Chinese industry simply skipped some phases of the technology...

The role of the NIVELCO subsidiaries The NIVELCO’s strategy - which emphasises export sales not only by developing the distribution network, but by establishing its own subsidiaries - has been proved to be right. The first NIVELCO subsidiary was established in 1994 in Poland. Our experiences there confirmed that export market positions can best be strengthened remarkably with using our own companies. We are convinced that efficient market building activity is possible only with colleagues who are familiar with the specific market situation, corporate culture and who have local partner...
