About Hartlauer Präzisions Elektronik
Hartlauer Präzisions Elektronik GmbH (HPE) develops and manufactures power supplies for high-power and high-voltage applications. The focus is on highly accurate capacitor chargers with extreme repetition rates, floating precision power supplies and compact pulse sources. The devices are manufactured individually to customer specification for medical technology, industry, science and laboratory applications. HPE pursues a high level of development and manufacturing depth: circuit design, control software, inductive components, potting and oil insulation as well as enclosure engineering are developed and produced in-house. Manufacturing includes coil winding as well as the assembly and wiring of transformers according to technical drawings. The products undergo electrical and mechanical testing, risk analysis and type testing. As an owner-managed company at Lake Chiemsee, HPE has been manufacturing for renowned manufacturers for over 30 years.
