TOMAR CUSTOM DESIGN
Strobe & LED Solutions that outshine the rest
TOMAR Custom develops and delivers cost effective Strobe or LED lighting solutions to meet your unique requirements. TOMAR Custom can modify an existing TOMAR product to meet your TOMAR LED lighting modules.specifications, integrate existing TOMAR component building blocks into your existing product, or leverage TOMAR intellectual property, design capability, and manufacturing expertise to create a completely new lighting solution. TOMAR Custom design often draws on its 50 year experience to provide design services free of charge with a production commitment.
Designs circuits to meet electrical function requirements with a safe design margin. Circuits are designed, simulated and tested via computer using Altium PCB Design suite, MATLAB and LTspice. Hardware versions of these designs are verified on the engineering test bench, and using environmental chambers and a screen room for RFI/EMI measurements.
Develops robust product packaging and assembly solutions for physical, structural and application environment requirements. Computer tools such as Solidworks design and simulation allow complete design analysis during development. Our 3D laser scanner facilitates custom fit solutions for a variety of existing hardware applications.
Creates and simulates approaches for specific optical outputs, using optical design and ray trace software. Optical designs are incorporated into product part design, and optical output is measured physically to ensure that the physical parts create the desired result.
Ensures that both circuit designs and physical product designs meet customer product and environmental requirements. Computer simulations and thermal chamber testing allow repeated testing and verification to optimize safe thermal conditions.
Designs and writes the embedded instructions that drive product functionality. Creative approaches are developed and tested in parallel with hardware design, and are maintained and managed over the life of the product.
Code Blue, a company that manufactures emergency communication kiosks for parking facilities and other public places, approached TOMAR to develop a glowing blue light that calls attention to the kiosk at night. When the kiosk’s phone is used to contact law enforcement, the blue light flashes to draw the responding officer to the call location.
TOMAR designed and manufactures a custom power supply and strobe lamp assembly for a new more stylish vehicle for a major US material handling machinery manufacturer. The design work included the electrical, mechanical, and optical design as well as obtaining and maintaining UL component recognition.
Tomar developed a The R14-DECEL® light, a patented deceleration sensing LED alert light that operates independent of the vehicles braking system. The R14-DECEL uses a 3 axis linear accelerometer as an inertia sensor to continuously monitor a vehicles acceleration and will activate when a reduction in forward velocity occurs. Once equilibrium has been achieved, the light deactivates. The design, which holds several innovative design patents, is based on the well-established RECT-14LS emergency warning light and integrates deceleration technology developed by VTRCORP.
A major builder and operator of turn-key video tolling and enforcement installations needed to solve a problem. How to nearly 100% reliably capture diverse vehicle license plates, from all 50 US states, with enough clarity to capture the plate numbers using optical character recognition from a gantry above the roadway, on vehicles traveling up to 120 mph.
