Industries Served

Where German precision meets regulated production.

Schleich instruments are specified into industries where motor and transformer integrity is audited, regulated, or mission-critical. MDS supports those instruments wherever they land on the continent, against the standards those industries operate under.

Industries that specify Schleich.

Oil & Gas · Three-phase ESP
Defense · Naval propulsion
Power Generation · Stator inspection
Data Center · HVAC machine
01 · Lead industry
Aerospace
Actuator motors, generators, environmental-control machines, fuel pumps. Every winding traceable, every test event archived. Schleich's waveform-level repeatability survives the audit and the field.
Standards in play AS9100D · NADCAP · MIL-STD-810 · IEEE 522
Schleich-engineered · MDS-supported
02 · Lead industry
Defense
Naval propulsion, ground-vehicle traction, mission-critical generators. The United States Navy is a current Schleich user. Programs run on documented test repeatability across long platform lives.
Standards in play MIL-STD-461 · MIL-STD-810 · MIL-DTL-917 · ITAR-aware handling
Schleich-engineered · MDS-supported
03 · Lead industry
EV Manufacturing
Hairpin-wound traction motors, drive units, axial-flux machines. End-of-line PD signatures and surge waveforms that catch hairpin faults before they reach the chassis line. The MTC2-EV exists for this discipline.
Standards in play IATF 16949 · IEC 60034-27-1 · OEM waveform protocols
Schleich-engineered · MDS-supported
04 · Lead industry
Oil & Gas
Downhole electric submersible pumps, pipeline machines, refinery rotating equipment. Baker Hughes runs 18 Schleich testers in service. Field-portable diagnostics for plants where downtime is measured in barrels per hour.
Standards in play API 541 · API 547 · IEEE 841
Schleich-engineered · MDS-supported
05 · Lead industry
Wind Power
Generator manufacturing, gearbox-integrated machines, blade-pitch motors. Field testing of medium-voltage stators and twenty-year service intervals where instrument continuity matters more than purchase price.
Standards in play IEC 61400-1 · IEEE 43 · IEEE 95 · IEEE 522
Schleich-engineered · MDS-supported
06 · Lead industry
Medical Technology
MRI gradient amplifiers, surgical-robot servomotors, infusion-pump motors. Audit-grade motor verification feeding into device-level quality records. Calibration certificates that survive FDA inspection.
Standards in play ISO 13485 · IEC 60601-1 · 21 CFR Part 820
Schleich-engineered · MDS-supported
Additional Industries Served

Standards: IEC 60034-27-1 · ISO 10218
EASA Repair Shops
Member shops repairing medium-voltage stators, traction machines, aerospace actuators. Schleich-portable, MDS-calibrated, EASA-recognized.
Standards: EASA AR100 · IEEE 43 · IEEE 95
General Manufacturing
Pump, fan, compressor, and machine-tool motor production. The MTC platform configured to the plant, with NA-side calibration on the schedule.
Standards: IEC 60034 · IATF 16949 · NEMA MG 1
A Common Posture

Engineered for industries that cannot afford a soft answer.

The industries above share more than regulation. They share the assumption that test data is contractual: archivable, comparable across years, traceable to a calibration chain that does not change vendors mid-program.

That is what the Schleich + MDS arrangement is built to deliver, on this continent, without intermediaries.

Standards-mapping question, audit prep, or new program. Start with a principal.

Program engineers, plant directors, and procurement leads in regulated industries: configuration, audit readiness, and standards mapping all route to the appropriate MDS principal.
