About SET
SET GmbH, headquartered in Wangen/Allgäu, is a technology company specializing in the development of test systems and electronics for the aerospace and power semiconductor industries. The company develops semiconductor test systems for reliability testing of wide-bandgap materials such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), including dynamic H3TRB/DRB test systems and power cycling test systems. For aerospace, SET offers HiL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) test systems for certified flight electronics as well as System-on-Demand test solutions. The value chain includes electronics and software development, hardware, mechanics and software engineering, in-house electronics manufacturing, as well as manufacturing, commissioning of the complete system, and Testing as a Service. For more than 20 years, SET has been leading projects from the definition of system requirements through to commissioning. Since 2023, the company founded in 2001 has been part of NI, Emerson's Test & Measurement Business. In addition to Wangen/Allgäu, SET maintains a branch office in Düsseldorf and, with SET Americas, a location in Easthampton, Massachusetts (USA).
