2021

Relocation: Since the spatial conditions in Icking are no longer sufficient for further growth, we decided to relocate to the Wolfratshausen industrial park. Here we found a new “home” with sufficient capacity for hardware and software development, production and sales. 

ERP implementation: In addition, we introduce a general ERP system. Its benefits are the improvement of organizational processes and structures, faster adaptabilty to changes and the optimization of business processes. By this tool, we are optimally equipped and positioned for future challenges and expansion. 


2020

Condition Monitoring: We are starting several projects in the new field of condition monitoring of machines. First test projects in the industry are running successfully and deviations in the parameters of the machine can be significantly detected.  


2019

Vallen Automation Manager Software and Dashboard: These new software components are comfortable tools to simplify and visualize monitoring applications of infrastructures. In addition to AE technology, the integration of a variety of further measurement systems is possible. Furthermore, alarms are triggered in critical situations and notification messages are sent. A cloud-based dashboard stores the relevant application results displaying the information in user-defined diagrams.


2018

Vallen Smart Line™ Sensor: The first AE sensor (VS150-RSC) with integrated Vallen Smart Line™ preamplifier is released. Simplified operation is guaranteed as sensor type, serial number and gain are automatically identified and read by the AE system.


2017

AMSY-6 with USB 3 interface: The AMSY-6 system with high performance USB 3 interface is now available. The USB 3 interface is part of the next generation system controller (UD2) of the AMSY-6 system and improves data transfer rate significantly.


2016

Vallen AE Suite Software 2016: It’s the next evolutionary step to accelerate measurement procedures and simplify AE data analysis. Some key improvements are: algorithms for defect localization at objects, wizard based configuration setups, 3D visualization and system verification according to EN 13477-2.


2015

SAAMMx20, Stand-Alone AE Monitoring Multiplexer: The first AE stand-alone structure and health monitoring device with multiplexing capabilities, low power consumption and standard industrial communication interface.


2014

Intelligent waveform picking: The so-called “duration adapted transient recording” feature captures automatically the complete AE waveform, including user-defined pre- and post-samples. This enables new post-processing strategies to extract valuable information from the recorded waveform data.


2013

SQLite3 database file format: Vallen Systeme introduces a ground breaking and open file format to the worldwide Acoustic Emission society! The SQLite3 database file format enables fast and flexible data processing for any customer, supporting Vallen analysis software as well as third party analysis tools like Matlab.


2012

Intrinsically safe product family ISAFE3: This product family enables customers to install AE sensors in hazardous areas, even in zone 0.


2011

AMSY-6: The next evolutionary step for AE systems was released. It is based on the established AMSY-5 and driven by many customer demands. The key highlights are USB 2.0 high speed, extended flexibility for multi-chassis applications, improved system performance and optimized reliability.


2007

ASIP-2: New 2-channel AE data acquisition board with high performance DSP capabilities! Most important features are: On board AE feature and waveform processing, >500 digital selectable 8th order bandpass filter, 25 ns high resolution time stamping, 18 bit and 40 MSPS signal resolution and many more.


2003
