At: Heves Engineering

The design of a waterproof sensor plug: 

Heves engineering is an R&D company that provides innovative engineering solutions to companies.

They currently work on a machine that requires a storage tank with a sensor. This sensor must monitor the process inside the tank. The currently available technologies to mount the sensor to the tank did not comply with their requirements and so they needed a customized sensor transit. Therefore, the assignment was to design this sensor transit. Heves does also has some thoughts about bringing the product to the market because it could be used in other industries as well. Those potential industries and possible applications are investigated as well. When the product proofs its working in their machine will a patent be submitted to protect the intellectual property.
