On 23 April 2026 at the Battery Tech Expo, The Wing Silverstone, ODU will be showcasing their Black-Line Mass Interconnect range and other quick-connectors that support battery and PCB manufacturers mid & end-of-line testing.
New half-rack Compact Class added
The existing varients of the ODU-MAC® Black-Line offer up to 4,608 signal points, making them real heavyweights in test and measurement. However, not every customer needs this, hence the new Compact Class.
The Compact Class requires only half the width of a classic 19 inch rack.
It offers up to up to 1,536 signal points. Characterized by its user-friendliness, the mechanical coding prevents the receiver from mismating and, thanks to condition monitoring by means of a microswitch,it is possible to determine whether the docking process has been completed – making testing more convenient and safer.
There are three options to choose for the receiver:
- Housing Option – enables ergonomic handling and reliable locking by hand lever
- ITA (Interchangeable Test Adapter) Option – easily integrate common test equipment
- Connector Option – with ODU-MAC® Rapid connectors.
There is also a 600A power block with two 16 mm Lamtac® Flex contacts.
If you would like to update your test setup, then please drop by Stand A3 where our engineers Jason Laver and Alex Strothers will be delighted to discuss the options.
