foreword

All things around us have been created twice.

It all starts with an idea in our mind followed by a second creative process of making the idea physically touchable. That is what we do at SPICA.

With key focus on our customer, SPICA is creative in finding manufacturable solutions for electronic components and products for various industrial applications and markets.

With competences in wire & cable assembly, inductive components and printed circuit board assembly, sustainable solutions can be provided.

Since the introduction of Smart Meters worldwide, SPICA has developed an extensive portfolio of cost-efficient PLC filters ideal to face your Smart Meter PLC communication challenges.

Because at SPICA the customer is key in everything we do, I’m convinced SPICA will reach its goal thanks to its great team. Their experience and motivation make the difference. To your benefit!

Inductive components During many years, SPICA invested in the development and manufacturing of inductive components.

Each choke or transformer designed and manufactured by SPICA is tailor-made. The design of the inductive component is based on the technical and functional requirements of the final assembly.

For the manufacturing of its coils and transformers, SPICA relies on its semi- and full automatic winding machines, as well as for smaller PCB mountable components as for the more sized transformers and chokes for industrial applications and power electronics.

The inductive components can be produced with copper or aluminium, wire or foil.

The inductive components are vacuum impregnated or potted.

SPICA provides its services in: • The development and manufacturing of the most suitable inductive solution • The production of single components • The assembly of your specific electronic design Based on your technical specifications, SPICA will propose the most energy efficient transformer or choke, at competitive market conditions.

Specific products You have some specific assembly in mind?

SPICA differentiates by proposing manufacturing solutions.

Our employees are challenged to turn your ideas into real products. Each tailor-made product can be assembled, tested and delivered on time.

The combination of SPICA’s skills and competences enables the full assembly of your product.

• For the wiring of panels and machinery, SPICA is combining its wire and cable knowledge with its logistic expertise.

PLCFilter Increase the reliability of your Power Line Communication by using a SPICA PLC filter.

Power Line Communication (PLC) is a communication technique by which communication runs along the power cables in a pre-defined frequency range.

The PLC technique is often used to support the data transfer during development and mass roll-out of the Smart Meters (Electricity & Water).

While building this Smart Grid infrastructure, PLC reliability improvements can be realized by implementing the correct filter.

In this market, SPICA can offer its own product portfolio. Standard two types of families are available. One is characterized as filtering in a limited frequency range and limited attenuation.

The STRIKE family is designed with improved attenuation performance and is effective in the full CENELEC A frequency band.

Based on this knowledge and competence, tailor-made solutions can be developed and manufactured based on your requirements.
