Safety, Functional & Quality Inspections
 

  • Testing the 30 kg threshold
  • Checking the weight sensors and seat occupancy switches integrated into motor vehicles
  • Control of components
  • Mechanical and electrical inspection of ABS/ASR, airbag and locking systems, as well as transmission monitoring systems
  • Visual application of markings
  • Integration of needle or tampon printing, as well as ink or laser marking in the testing system for serial numbers or batches
  • Testing of low voltages
  • Safety inspections to eliminate hazards
  • Checking the communication of control units
  • Verification of the values stored in the initialization program, as well as programming of controls and sensors

Electrical Safety and Resistance Testing of Transmissions

Our Components

  • elution Software
  • Electrical Safety Testing (PE, IS, HV)
  • Resistance Testing
     

Project Description

The testing system is designed for electrical safety testing (PE, IS, HV) and resistance testing of motor windings and the connection between the two housing parts. The tests are conducted within a fully enclosed testing frame. The testing devices and the switching matrix are housed on the testing frame. Connection to the testing devices is made via a customer-specific adapter cable. To perform the test, the operator places the test specimen—along with the workpiece carrier—into the testing frame and adapts the adapter cable at the specified locations. The testing frame must be completely closed, which is monitored by a safety circuit. To compensate for the temperature in resistance measurement, a temperature sensor is connected to the Burster resistomat. The testing system is fully computer-controlled. The operation of the system during testing is computer-guided. By creating test plans, the testing system can be adapted to new or modified products. The parameters of the test specimen and the tests are freely adjustable within specified limits.

Semi-Automated Circulating System for Testing Cell Contacting Systems

Our Components

  • elution Software
  • Error-free assembly through operator guidance
  • Continuity testing
  • Insulation resistance testing
  • High-voltage testing
  • Component marking with laser
     

Project Description

The semi-automated circulating system consists of various stations that the test specimen passes through on a workpiece carrier via a conveyor belt. The first station is an insertion point where the test specimen is placed, scanned, and identified using an RFID system. The operator is guided through the assembly task by the elution software.

In the subsequent testing station, the test specimen is again identified via the RFID system. The workpiece carrier is lifted and indexed, and the test specimen is contacted from below via two contact units. From above, the test specimen is also contacted at up to 36 test points using pneumatic contact pins. This is followed by continuity testing, insulation resistance testing, and high-voltage testing.

The third station in the system is a laser station, where the test specimen is first identified again using the RFID system. Then, the workpiece carrier is lifted and indexed. "Good" tested specimens are laser-marked with a DataMatrix code. Subsequently, a reverse scan of the code is performed to verify the content.

The test specimen then proceeds to the extraction station via a conveyor belt. Here, the test specimen is identified one last time using the RFID system. For "good" tested specimens, final assembly tasks are carried out with the assistance of the elution software's operator guidance. "Bad" tested specimens are discarded in a corresponding reject box.
