Torque Converter
Torque Converter Automotive Torque Converter Surface Description Since minute defects in the torque converter casing wall thickness can result in unacceptable and dangerous torque converter expansion, a precision measurement system was needed to measure the impeller hub displacement and thus the torque converter axial displacement. An AC dynamometer would be required to spin the torque converter at a high rate of speed while a fast response hydraulic system is needed to pressurize the converter to pressures up to 150 psi. MTI’s MicroTrak laser sensor was selected because it offered a [...]

Tire Tread Inspection With 1D Laser Sensor
Tire Tread Inspection With 1D Laser Sensor Automotive Tire Tread Inspection With 1D Laser Sensor Depth Description Tire manufacturers wants to satisfy their customers, and protect themselves from liabilities, manufacturers are moving to 100% tire inspection for defects and abnormalities. Defects not only cause potential safety issues but they can also introduce unwanted vibration into the vehicle suspension system. Belts can be overlapped, or not cover the complete tire surface, causing weak or bubbled areas and imbalances. The tread depth can be too shallow, leading to decreased service life. An [...]
Thermal Expansion On Automobile Engine
Thermal Expansion On Automobile Engine Automotive Thermal Expansion On Automobile Engine Dimensions Description For years the sole purpose of the oil pan was to act as a reservoir for the engine lubricant. Some modern engines now utilize the pan as a structural component. It is machined from a rigid steel or aluminum casting and designed to support the lower portion of the crankshaft bearings and rear main seal. This development has introduced a potential problem area that must be analyzed. As engines go through heating and cooling cycles it is [...]

Sheet Metal Monitoring
Sheet Metal Monitoring Automotive Sheet Metal Monitoring Thickness Description Introduction: When sheet metal is formed in a continuous process it needs monitoring during the actual feed prior to machining or forming to prevent defects and scrap.  One way to accomplish this is to use a laser sensor to measure the thickness. Problem: A major electrical equipment manufacturer needed a way to monitor the incoming material just prior to shearing and forming. The device needed to be robust, non-contact, reliable, accurate, and fast. The client would be using their data acquisition [...]
