Now also ready for climate chambers: Dynamic measurements with MoveInspect

AICON’s optical measuring system MoveInspect captures dynamic processes three dimensionally and analyses them with regard to geometric changes. Thanks to a new climate control concept, MoveInspect is now also ready for analysing movements and deformations under extreme climatic conditions, for example in environmental chambers. Here, the optical system replaces mechanical travel sensors because it reduces the setup work significantly.

MoveInspect is based on a camera bar that is equipped with digital cameras and offered in different versions. The high-end version is able to conduct tests at a frequency of 1000Hz. The system can also be applied for endurance testing as it records the data without any time limit. The results of the dynamic measurements are displayed in a clear and descriptive manner. They may also be exported to external analysis software such as DIADem.

By default, MoveInspect is provided with a rugged camera body suitable for industrial requirements (IP65). For dynamic measurements over large temperature ranges, AICON additionally assembles the MoveInspect cameras with a special body temperature control. It is managed by a central unit and allows for the precise identification of the geometric changes in a temperature range between -25°C to +70°C with an accuracy of up to 10µm. The recorded 3D movements can be shown in the same reference system which permits an easy comparison of the results.

The first climate controlled MoveInspect system is in use at a German vehicle manufacturer. The company makes endurance load tests lasting several days under different environmental conditions.

At the Control exhibition, AICON will show the measuring system in hall 1, booth 1118.
