Electromagnetic Interference Reduction for Smart Manufacturing Control Systems​

EMIS offers comprehensive electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) solutions designed to suppress high-frequency electrical noise in industrial drive and motion control architectures.

High-Frequency Noise Suppression in Industrial Automation​

EMIS showcases an expanded range of electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters and power quality components for industrial automation applications. These passive electronic components are engineered to ensure signal integrity and regulatory compliance in high-density manufacturing environments and electric drive systems.

Modern industrial facilities rely on precise digital control technology and high-speed industrial communication networks. In these environments, uncontrolled electromagnetic interference can lead to signal degradation, logic errors, or hardware malfunction. EMIS's EMI filters address these challenges by attenuating unwanted frequency emissions across a broad spectrum, from 50 Hz to 40 GHz.

Component Architecture and Application Scope​

The hardware portfolio encompasses standard EMI and EMC filters, feedthrough components, and surge protectors. These modules are directly integrated into the power and data lines of automated machinery, medical electronics, telecommunications infrastructure, and aerospace systems. By filtering conducted interference, the components maintain stable power quality and protect sensitive microprocessors from transient voltage spikes and continuous harmonic distortion.

Testing and European Integration​

To support localized engineering requirements, EMIS operates an in-house pre-compliance laboratory that verifies component performance against international safety and EMC standards. The standardized portfolio exceeds 2,500 certified part numbers, allowing for rapid integration into existing industrial architectures. For the European market, engineering and design support is co-managed with German distributor Freicomp, facilitating precise component specification and circuit integration for complex industrial projects.

Industry Differentiation​

Within the industrial EMI reduction sector, manufacturers such as Schaffner and TE Connectivity (Corcom) also offer comprehensive electromagnetic compatibility filter portfolios. Engineers often compare criteria such as operational frequency attenuation, insertion loss performance, and fundamental leakage current when evaluating these power quality solutions.

While competitors like Schaffner focus strongly on high-power modular active filters for heavy mains applications, EMIS differentiates its product with a broad frequency reduction capability, extending from standard 50 Hz power line frequencies up to 40 GHz. Furthermore, the integration of specialized feedthrough components and the in-house pre-compliance laboratory allow facilities to streamline the safety certification process during machine design, offering an integrated alternative to sourcing individual passive components through fragmented supply chains.
