Elma Electronic – System Technology for the Most Demanding Electronics Applications

Elma Electronic was founded in Switzerland in 1961 and has evolved into a global specialist for electronic enclosure and sub-rack systems. The product range includes standardised and custom 19-inch sub-racks, system enclosures, passive and active backplanes, and accessories for integration into card-cage systems.

Elma products are deployed in industrial automation, defence, telecommunications, medical technology, aerospace and instrumentation. The sub-racks support all common backplane buses: VMEbus (IEEE 1014), CompactPCI (PICMG 2.x), VPX (VITA 46/65), ATCA (PICMG 3.x) and proprietary systems.

Elma enclosures are manufactured to IEC 60297 (19-inch standard) and comply with EMC requirements per EN 61000, as well as mechanical requirements for shock and vibration resistance. ISO 9001-certified manufacturing guarantees consistent quality from prototypes through to series production.

► Frequently Asked Questions about Elma Electronic Products

What is a sub-rack and what is it used for?
A sub-rack is a mechanical carrier system for plug-in electronic modules. It consists of a housing frame with guide rails into which printed circuit boards (in Eurocard format) are inserted. The sub-rack holds the backplane, which provides the mechanical connectors and electrical connections between modules. Elma sub-racks are designed for common standards such as VME, CompactPCI and VPX.
What is the difference between VMEbus and VPX?
VMEbus (IEEE 1014) is a parallel backplane bus established since the 1980s for industrial and defence systems – proven and long-lived, but with limited bandwidth. VPX (VITA 46/65) is the modern successor based on serial high-speed fabrics (PCIe, Serial RapidIO, 10GbE) – significantly higher data rates, for new embedded computing architectures. Elma offers sub-racks and backplanes for both platforms.
Does Elma also supply custom enclosures and backplanes?
Yes. In addition to the catalogue range, Elma Electronic offers an extensive custom manufacturing service for OEM projects. Custom sub-racks, adapted backplane topologies and individually configured system enclosures are manufactured from a batch size of one. ISO 9001-certified production ensures quality and full traceability for safety-critical applications.
