Henrique da Silva, Data Acquisition Technical Sales Manager at Adept Scientific explores how the modern car is more than just a mode of transport, but now is also a sophisticated computerised piece of machinery [requiring sophisticated data acquisitions systems such as ADwin.]
Metal stamping is frequently used to shape metal parts in the automotive industry. During the manufacture of torque converters, for example, it is used to create indentations that hold the metal vanes that are used to transmit the power from the engine to the transmission though a fluid. Hydraulic cylinders ...
Despite being an established concept with about 30 years of history in the instrumentation industry, the DAQ market continues to evolve owing to regular introduction of new technologies.

Adwin test systems from Adept Scientific can determine the dynamic characteristics and parameters of components and sensors and can evaluate a response in real time. This means the system can immediately calculate how well a test component matches the specifications
Two USB I/O devices from Adept Scientific are helping researchers at Bath University to develop and perfect production of photonic crystal optical fibre. This has potentially revolutionary applications for light signal transmission.
The MiniLab Gas Turbine Power System, specifically intended for universities and technical institutes around the world contains an embedded IOtech Personal Daq data acquisition system and is being used both as a teaching tool and as a test stand for numerous research projects.
IOtech's DaqBook measures load, torque, and displacement on an automobile jack to verify that it complies with its capacity ratings and safety requirements.
IOtech's DaqBook's modularity, accuracy, portability, and open software features give users the flexibility needed to measure a wide range of vibrations in machinery.
A universal mechanical strength tester uses a data acquisition DaqBoard/2000 in a computer-operated test system for evaluating all forms of adhesion, microelectronic wafer interconnects, material characterisation, and QC tests.
An automotive small parts supplier is using an IOtech DaqBoard/2000 data acquisition system to measure hole size and location parameters in die cast engine mounting brackets.
Read how ADwin enables a manufacturer of rubber joint boots to use an automated monitoring system and, thereby, eliminate the need to manually inspect the boots for failure.
Real-time means different things to different people and without defined time frames it is impossible to compare different systems accurately. This paper defines what real-time means and describes what time scales are appropriate for different activities.
