Fons: “Decca's straight-line wiper is a widely acclaimed quality product! Users on the high seas rave about Decca Wiper's robustness and good service.”
“We are developing a straight-line wiper that is at least equivalent in quality and also meets all set legal requirements and standards”, he continues. “Because it is used in extreme conditions - in all weathers, on the high seas - the labels and certifications listen very carefully.”
Fons: “In collaboration with the highly skilled R&D department of Exalto Wiper Technologies in the Netherlands, we are currently working on the development of a product whose underlying hardware and software is revolutionary. The Decca Wiper will soon be able to go on for longer, with variable speeds adjustable during the stroke. Based on a totally new concept, with a smooth and whisper-quiet drive!”
A straight-line wiper has the characteristic of moving from left to right and back again. This is in contrast to the pendulum/pantograph wiper, which is driven from a single point. “This also makes the Decca wiper a welcome addition to Exalto Wiper Technologies' product range”, says Fons.
The development of the wiper and the ambitions of the R&D department go hand in hand, Fons explains. “Meanwhile, a state-of-the-art laboratory is also part of R&D at the location in Hardinxveld-Giessendam. There, all necessary tests can be carried out with the new wiper systems! The test center is an important element in the success of the R&D department.”
Fons, concludes: “We will present our new wiper in 2024 at SMM, the leading international maritime trade fair in Hamburg. Then we will have confirmed our position in the market with Decca and my job will be done.”
