Eberle Design is committed to a continuous program of research and development to support a complete offering of cabinet auxiliary equipment. It is this program that has led to the development of a complete line of both NEMA and 170 type signal monitors, inductive loop detectors, load switches, and flashers. A full time technical staff works to develop new products and support the existing products. In the past several years, Eberle Design has introduced many new products including the industry's first NEMA TS-2 Malfunction Management Unit and NEMA TS-2 Loop Detector, a 2070 CU compatible signal monitor, LCD loop detectors, and the industry's first ITS Cabinet monitoring system. The newest MMU-16LE SmartMonitor offers unprecedented industry innovations such as built-in setup and diagnostic wizards.

In addition to product development, the Eberle Design technical staff has been a member of the NEMA Transportation Management Systems Section since the company's inception. Active participation in the development of industry standards such as TS-1 and TS-2 has kept the company in the forefront of new technology and industry advancements. Eberle Design is continuing this effort with further extensions of the TS-2 Standard along with the development of the National Transportation Communications for ITS Protocol (NTCIP).

In similar fashion, the company also participates on the ITE/NEMA/AASHTO sponsored ITS Cabinet Working Group. This Working Group is generating a set of requirements and specifications for a new cabinet architecture which supports advanced traffic controllers (ATC) as well as a multitude of ITS applications. Eberle Design has introduced the industry's first Cabinet Monitor Unit (CMU) and Auxiliary Monitor Unit (AMU) supporting the ITS Cabinet architecture.

In 2000, Eberle Design added the LMA Deflectometer series of loop detectors serving  the Access Control marketplace.

A key to EDI product reliability is the high level of testing that is applied 100% to each and every unit. The final test procedure consists of a three stage flow. A unit is given a complete bench test for quality check and functionality. The second stage runs the unit through an environmental chamber to provide a high temperature burn-in period and second test at rated temperatures. A final bench test is then run on the unit at nominal temperature to ensure a unit "out of the box" which will exceed the performance level and reliability expected by our customers. It is this Total Quality Assurance (TQA) system that helps provide reliable service in the critical first year of operation.

Should a unit repair become necessary, it is handled through the same final test group. Once a device has been diagnosed and repaired, it is then run through the same final test flow as a new unit and is returned with a full report. The aim of the final test group is to have a unit repaired and ready to ship back to the owner in 72 hours.

Eberle Design Inc. is pleased to announce that it has achieved certification to ISO 9001:2008 quality systems standards. The registration, by Management Certification of North America, Inc., includes all sales, marketing, customer service, engineering and manufacturing facilities and functions. 

While EDI had previously enjoyed a quality reputation thanks to its TQA quality management system, this registration takes its quality standards an additional step. The ISO 9001:2008 quality systems certification signifies that EDI monitors and tracks customer satisfaction, as well as adherence to procedures and quality standards, for a more total approach to customer satisfaction. "Our goal is to promote even more customer confidence in our products and services." says Quality Assurance Manager, Steve Schoen. "We are always looking for ways to improve on our successes at EDI, and this is a good one for us and our customers."

Eberle Design sets the standard for quality and reliability.
