With the two new measurement modules for wireless data transmission, 4TempOnAir (transmitter) and 4LinkOnAir (receiver), AFT Atlas Fahrzeug-technik GmbH simplifies the data acquisition on rotating components. Until now, a slip ring has been used for measuring the temperature of, e. g., the brake system. Instead of that 4TempOnAir is mounted directly onto the rim and transmits the data to the 4LinkOnAir. The new PikesPEAK is used for high-speed measurements, long-term and rotational analyses in the laboratory, at the test-bench and real-world in-vehicle use. The high-speed data logger records transient signals with a sampling rate analogue up to 500 kHz and counting accuracy of 100 ps. Because of the modular design, the system can be adapted to different measuring tasks. AFT is an international supplier of mechatronic system engineering with 30 years experience specializing in vehicle powertrain, testing, in-vehicle measurement systems and 15 years experience in vehicle acoustic optimisation. The core expertise ranges from Rapid Control Prototyping, customer-specific hardware and software development as well as series calibration through measurement system integration, acoustic and vibration analysis to small-series supply with full service. |

The Plastic Welding Division of LPKF Laser & Electronics AG is focused on development, production and worldwide distribution of systems for laser plastic welding. An interesting field of application is the patented hybrid welding technique, which is especially developed for large three-dimensional parts. Hybrid welding combines a monochromatic laser source with a polychromatic halogen light. The many advantages of this innovative technology are shown at their best when welding visible joints (e.g. car head lights and tail lights). Moreover the benefits of the LPKF hybrid welding method are the complete absence of any fuzz or fluff, and the fact that it causes no internal stresses – avoiding the need for complex further processing such as tempering. The new robot-supported LPKF TwinWeld3D hybrid welding machine boasts much higher welding seam quality and faster processing times. As a full service provider LPKF not only provides systems, but also the associated technical know-how about laser engineering, plastic technology, and material processing, as well as a comprehensive process experience and competence. |
