New Video from MTI! Closed-loop System to Monitor and Control Conductive Film Thickness During Manufacturing
Closed-loop System to Monitor and Control Conductive Film Thickness During Manufacturing This animation demonstrates how Accumeasure with capacitance probes can be used as a solution to measure and control conductive film thickness in a production line where these measurements can be fed back to a controller which adjusts the roller(s) to increase or decrease the gap to keep the film’s thickness within specification. The MTI Instruments Capacitive system has greater than 100 nm resolution and 1um accuracy. This solution is appropriate for measuring the following: EV battery plate thickness Non-woven conductive material thickness Conductive film thickness Roll-to-roll conductive [...]
Case-In-Point: High-Accuracy Capacitive Thickness Measurement Optimizes Li-Ion EV Battery Plate Qualities
High-Accuracy Capacitive Thickness Measurement Optimizes Li-Ion EV Battery Plate Qualities EV Battery manufacturers need to measure EV battery plate thickness with a high degree of precision (repeatable <2um accuracy and resolution) to optimize manufacturing efficiencies while maintaining uniform cell capacity and minimizing waste. The MTI Accumeasure System provides an effective means of monitoring plate thickness achieving sub 2um accuracy with high repeatability Introduction The rapidly expanding demand for electric vehicles is driving advances in the production of rechargeable cells that comprise the first stage in the composition of EV battery packs. Individual Li-Ion cells are combined to form [...]

Torque Converter
Industry Automotive Applications Torque Converter Measurement Type 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 [...]
