Test & Inspection

RSS

Automotive manufacturers are using the technology to inspect battery compartments and other safety-critical assemblies.

To increase efficiency and improve safety, OnRobot employs its own automation products on its assembly lines.

Leak testing of EV battery cells and modules is vital for safety and defect prevention in North America's growing mobility industry. Early detection of leaks, especially during module assembly, saves time and money while ensuring quality control.

The manufacturing sector faces challenges like labor shortages and supply chain issues. Adopting standardized modular inspection systems can boost efficiency, improve communication, and reduce costs. These tools also facilitate advanced technologies, helping manufacturers thrive in a competitive landscape.

Generative AI Searches are transforming how professionals access technical data in fields like inspection and gages. While these tools deliver quick results, reliance on their outputs can lead to inaccuracies, as shown by discrepancies in thread specifications. Understanding the strengths and limitations of Generative AI is essential for ensuring the accuracy and relevance of information used in gage calibration and metrology.

Spherical air bearing systems are commonly used to test the attitude control systems of small satellites. The frictionless nature of the spherical air bearing makes it easy to simulate a zero-gravity environment, allowing the satellite’s pitch, roll, and yaw control systems to function as they would in space without cumbersome and expensive test simulations.

Compression testing is key in materials science for evaluating how materials respond to compressive loads. It helps determine mechanical properties like stiffness, strength, and fatigue life. This overview covers the testing process, material properties, standards, applications, challenges, and best practices.

To ensure a good RFP, engineers must provide as much detail as possible.

Quality control in manufacturing and engineering relies heavily on compression force testing to determine material strength, durability, and stability. This article highlights the key uses and equipment needed for such testing.

Time series analysis enables manufacturers to track quality data, revealing patterns, trends, and anomalies to maintain consistent production standards. This method can be applied to daily production output or hourly quality measurements.
