Ny case om produktions- og generatortest [Siemens Gamesa]

New Case about Production and Generator Tests! [Siemens Gamesa]

by with No Comment News

Strong Collaboration between GPower and Siemens

With almost 100 GW installed on a global scale, Siemens Gamesa (SG) is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of wind turbines. On the establishment of a new factory in Cuxhaven, Germany, SG realized the need for a faster and more flexible test system to secure the future production of wind turbine generators. A system that could easily be converted to measure on future – perhaps radically different – generator models. Moreover, a system that was ready to be implemented to other production lines at the factory.

At GPower, we have been using remote support for a long time. However, because of COVID-19, the demand is bigger than ever before – both from new and existing customers!

Do you need remote support to solve a current challenge, or do you need our advice on a new project without us having to be physically present?

Based on TeamViewer, we offer secure remote support as part of our consulting services. GPower TeamViewer support gives us the opportunity to offer immediate support if you experience technical errors and system crashes, among others. In addition, it also enables us to gain insights into new queries, as we can easily and quickly log in to the customer’s systems.

A Testimonial [DPA Microphones]

“I contacted GPower due to errors on our existing TestStand sequences after converting our test system from LabVIEW 2014 and TestStand 2014 to, respectively, LabVIEW 2018 and TestStand 2017.

By using Remote Support, GPower could easily and quickly help us solve the problem by connecting to our production machines. After fixing the errors, they also helped us with the subsequent conversion process. We clearly recommend GPower to others who need LabVIEW or TestStand experts here and now, but also in the long run” – Jimmy Ørsted, DPA Microphones.

Congratulations on Your Title as LabVIEW Architect, Jeppe! [CLA]

by with No Comment News

Good news at GPower! In only one month, we have become not just one, but two more LabVIEW architects. Congratulations to our system developer, Jeppe Lohse, who has also gained the highest LabVIEW certification!

What Does It Mean to be a Certified LabVIEW Architect (CLA)?

The CLA is the final step in the three-part LabVIEW certification process. The exam verifies the developer’s ability to build a VI hierarchy and project plan for delivering an application that fulfills a set of high-level requirements. Certified Architects provide technical leadership and help to ensure the developers on their team follow best practices for LabVIEW programming among other things.

The Best Certification Average in Denmark

At GPower, we are among the highest certified LabVIEW and TestStand teams in Europe. Both are software products from NI (National Instruments). Moreover, we are also the team with the highest NI certification average in Denmark. Certifications that are supported by the fact that our founder, in addition, is the only LabVIEW Champion in Denmark.

But what do the certifications and titles really mean to you? Besides, we are approved to solve the most demanding software challenges for test, measurement, and control, the certifications are also creating an environment focusing on common software skills and expert knowledge. Hence, a strong foundation for developing software solutions of the highest quality. Skills that might be relevant if you, e.g. need a measurement system for data logging in a development department or a test system for quality assurance of processes in a manufacturing company.

2019: Positive forandringer hele vejen rundt hos GPower

2019: Positive Changes in Many Ways [Annual Story]

by with No Comment News

What happened at GPower during 2019, and what do we expect for the coming year? In this post, our CEO reports on the past year while also giving a foretaste of 2020.

A Summary of 2019

In short, 2019 was a year of large-scale, but positive changes regarding everything from development of own products to a new organizational structure. Changes that were made owing to a staff increase of 33%, despite a year of establishment. The increasement has, among other things, resulted in more projects in pipeline as well as a much larger and much more varied customer portfolio. These are all factors that will be decisive for us next year, where we expect the number of employees to increase by up to double.

To return to own products, we have made good progress in what we said in 2018. In addition to being ready to launch a complete test concept, we are continuously launching new packages of our proprietary software where reusability, quality, and efficiency are among the keywords.

More employees, projects, and customers have likewise resulted in a new organizational structure that came into effect shortly before the summer holidays. Consequently, Jens Christian Andersen and Mads Grunnet Askholt are now the two new Tech Leads in our development department. Jens Christian and Mads are both supporting our CTO, Steen Secher Schmidt, regarding day-to-day operations, while also having a leading position when it comes to projects and software development in general. In addition to changes in the development department, changes have also occurred in our sales department, where Poul Lindholm Pedersen has entered the scene as our new Tech Sales. In close cooperation with Steen, Poul has intensified the focus on further development in terms of our concepts, strategic cooperation agreements, and partnerships, for which we have great expectations.

Furthermore, we have scaled up in terms of LabVIEW and TestStand certifications, which means that all developers have increased 1-2 levels during the year. Besides creating a common skill sets and an environment with a huge knowledge sharing, the certifications have also meant that we are highest certified LabVIEW and TestStand company in Denmark. All this is moreover supported by the fact that we are working on the most ground-breaking test and measurement projects in Scandinavia which I am incredibly proud to be part of.

What Are the Expectations for 2020?

Besides we already know that an experienced developer will join our team at the beginning of next year, we also expect to introduce another two employees during Q1. In addition, we will be launching several of our concepts, just as we will continue the journey from 2019 in 2020.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

In conclusion, I would like to take this opportunity to thank our long-time partner, National Instruments. Once again, they have proven that they are the right partner for us at present but also in the future. This is, among other things, because of their uncompromising approach to ensuring the highest quality while also having a forward-looking product portfolio. Two examples that are completely aligned with our philosophy.

Moreover, thanks to all our customers and partners for a good and fruitful cooperation in 2019. At the same time, I also wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Internally at GPower, we are now looking forward to celebrating 2019 and welcoming 2020 which we are doing with a ski holiday in Tignes, France in week 2. So now you know why, if you do not get a quick answer in the beginning of January 😉 🍻.

See you in 2020!

– Martin Boje, CEO at GPower.

Erfaren LabVIEW-udvikler bliver en del af GPower-teamet

An Experienced LabVIEW Developer Becomes Part of the GPower Team

by with No Comment News

From September 1, 2019, the experienced LabVIEW developer, Danny Halskov Birkmose, will also be part of our development department! The reason is, among other things, that the number of development projects for test and measurement are continuing to increase.

A New Developer with Experience in Test and Simulation

At GPower, we are once again scaling up the development department, when Danny Halskov Birkmose from September 1, 2019 also becomes part of our team.

Danny is a trained physicist from Aarhus University. For the past four years, he has been a LabVIEW developer at Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy A/S in their Software Test Environment. Here, he has worked with hardware-in-the-loop simulations in and around wind turbines and designed complex test systems.

Why GPower?

A crucial question for this post is, moreover, why Danny would like to be part of GPower, which he explains here:

“I see GPower as a very competent team that delivers high-quality solutions for test, measurement, and simulation. It seems to be a workplace with a really good atmosphere and with the opportunity to develop by further education and exciting projects. In addition, I also see the annual skiing trip as an excellent tradition 😊” – Danny Halskov Birkmose.

At GPower, we look forward to welcoming yet another strong and highly experienced developer!

Ny Tech Sales er kørt i stilling hos GPower

New Tech Sales Is Entering the Scene

by with No Comment News

As we are gaining more and more development projects for test and measurement, we have, in addition to two Tech Leads, also hired a new Tech Sales. A hiring that is based on a strategic decision in order to make more time for further development of our software platform.

Who Is GPower's New Tech Sales?

Poul Lindholm Pedersen is the name of GPower’s new Tech Sales. Poul is a trained physicist, and he has, among other things, a Master of Science (MSc) in Nanotechnology and a Ph.D. from Aarhus University. Before he joined our team in February 2019, he has been a consultant at Teknologisk Institut for four years:  

”As Tech Sales, my goal is to engage in dialogues with a lot of people in order to help them solving everyday challenges at work. Besides being a Tech Sales, I also act as a software developer for the purpose of having a hands-on approach to technical challenges. My motivation is, in short, to help solving challenges in the industry and to make advanced measurement and automation systems available for a wider range of businesses” – Poul Lindholm Pedersen.

Making Advanced Instrumentation Available for a Wider Range of Businesses

When choosing Poul to be our new Tech Sales, it is partly because we want to release more skills and resources for further development of our software platform. As a result, we can live up to our mission of delivering affordable, high-quality instruments on time while also putting an end to expensive and endless projects regarding test, measurement, and control.

Why? Because we want to make quality instruments more accessible, so small and medium-sized companies also can afford measuring instruments, controllers, and signal generators of the highest quality.
