Bringing a Brilliant Exhibition Idea to Life
Systel Simulation Units wanted to demonstrate their products in rugged conditions.
Custom booth | Manufacturing | 3-minute read
Highlights:
- Systel had a brilliant idea to demonstrate their products in rugged conditions at trade shows using simulation units
- They had been thinking about this for years but did not know how to get them produced
- Systel also wanted these units to convert from self-standing floor units to table units depending on the event size
- Exhibit Network researched, designed, engineered, experimented, tested, and re-tested—and kept Systel informed of every milestone
- The result is two simulation units: one vibrates, and the other simulates a sandstorm to show that Systel computers can perform under extreme environmental conditions
The Challenge:
Systel Inc. is an ISO 9001:2015 certified company with systems deployed worldwide for mission-critical applications in various markets, including defense, oil and gas, automation, and transportation. Systel’s rugged product line includes Embedded Systems, High-Density Storage Systems, Flat Panel Computers and Displays, High-Performance GPU Solutions, Wall Mount Computers, Laptops and Tablets, and ATCA Platforms, all designed for continuous operation under extreme environmental conditions. All Systel systems are designed, manufactured, and tested in the USA.
Systel’s brilliant idea for simulation units to demonstrate their products in rugged conditions was not new. They had been thinking about this for years, but did not know where to get them produced. Additionally, Systel wanted these units to convert from self-standing floor units in large booth spaces to table units for smaller events.
The Solution:
Exhibit Network had supplied Systel with trade show exhibits and services for over a year before Systel shared their idea with us. Fortunately, we had about 10 months until the simulation units were needed. Our team began researching, designing, engineering, experimenting, testing, and re-testing. We informed Systel of every milestone we reached to be sure we were on the right track with their vision.
The result is two simulation units that debuted at AUSA in Washington, DC. One vibrates, and the other simulates a sandstorm. Each unit holds a Systel computer running the video above it to show that the computers can perform under extreme environmental conditions.
AUSA is the Association of the United States Army Annual Meeting.
