Vehicle construction, shipbuilding, rail traffic

Vehicles must already prove their suitability for later use in the first stages of development. Thereby, not only functionalities but also stabilities, expansions, vibrations and many other things are tested. Applications in the standard vehicle which provide more safety or a longer service life are of particular importance in this context. Depending on the application, the sensors must operate under particular environmental conditions or require special modification.

Measurement of sprayed skin thickness

Sprayed skins for vehicle instruments and controls and for airbag cladding are sprayed using a robot-guided nozzle. The thickness of the sprayed skin is ...

Turbochargers

Apart from the angle of the guide vanes, the speed of the vanes on the turbine wheel is important for the performance of the turbocharger. The rotation ...

Adhesive beading check

It is important during the gluing in of glass panes in automobile production that the adhesive beading shows a constant track. Therefore a robot arm tracks ...

Automotive

Many applications can be assigned to the automotive area. They range from automobile manufacturing itself to the various automotive suppliers. Quality ...

Width

The width of the object is often an important dimension for the dimension control. The width can in some respects also be interpreted as thickness and ...

Cylinder breathing of the cylinder head gasket

Specially shaped eddy current sensors are integrated directly in the crankcase where they measure, for example, the expansion of the cylinder head gasket ...

Camber / toe angle

The camber or the toe angle is often adjusted during the service life of a passenger car. It is also often necessary to check the adjustments in the development ...

Valve lift sensor

Controlling the valves of combustion engines using electromagnetic actuators is a current objective of many engine developers. This technology makes possible ...

Brake disc concentricity

Brake discs are subject to the highest loads in use and are responsible for the safety of vehicles. For this reason alone, brake discs are thoroughly inspected ...

Vehicle distance to the road surface

The tilting and the driving behaviour are often examined in driving tests with automobiles. Optical laser sensors are ideally suitable for this. They are ...

Pistons

Combustion engines must withstand maximum loads during a long service life. In order to cope with this requirement, eddy current sensors from the eddyNCDT ...

Piston – Top Dead Centre

The Top Dead Centre of the cylinder movement is measured for adjustment of the precise ignition point in engine development. In doing so, a miniature eddy ...

Piston secondary movement

Among other things, the lateral movement of the piston in the cylinder is crucial for the service life of engines. Miniature eddy current sensors for this ...

Paintwork defects

The exterior appearance is an important factor for many surfaces. The reflectCONTROL inspection system is suitable for automatic defect inspection of reflecting ...

Lubrication gap

Sliding bearings are used for crankshaft bearings in the engine. A specific minimum distance is required so that the bearing operates as wear-free as possible. ...

Oil film thickness

The oil film thickness for combustion engines describes the gap and thus the quantity of oil between piston and cylinder wall. Thus it is sometimes a determining ...

Windscreen defects

During the production of windscreens, it can happen that the correct curvature of the windscreen has not been maintained or the fissures and cracks in ...

Vibration

Vibrations play a large role in the manufacturing industry. There is always vibration where products are in motion. In many cases, this is perceived as ...

Low cost sensors for cylinder applications

Monitoring the movement of gas pressure or hydraulic cylinders is solved very elegantly using an eddy current sensor. This sensor is integrated in the ...

Adhesive beading check on border strip

Border strips are automatically adhered to glass by robots in vehicle production. This automatic process must be monitored as the application of uniform ...
