Materials used in automotive manufacturingundergo many rigorous tests before they are approved for use in a vehicle. Testing laboratories must ensure the reliability and accuracy of the tests performed on future vehicle components. Looking for a solution for your temperature testing?
See how our temperature control system can help you ensure the quality of automotive parts tested in the test lab.
Carmakers have very strict standards for material quality and impact resistance.
A wide variety of tests must be performed to ensure that the material will meet manufacturing and regulatory requirements.
Materials can vary in chemical composition, thickness, strength and other factors that impact on performance.
Materials used in automotive manufacturing undergo a number of rigorous tests before being approved for use in a vehicle.
A number of environmental factors must also be taken into account such as extreme temperatures. Automotive materials are usually temperature tested to ensure that they can withstand the heat and stress of a car. Errors in materials and components can have an impact on the safety of the vehicle and its users.
Temperature testing involves subjecting materials to different levels of heat to see how they react. This can be done in a controlled environment or in an uncontrolled environment.
In testing laboratories, the temperature control is therefore an essential part of the process. A number of automotive materials have to withstand high temperatures.
One way to test their ability to do so is to use a temperature chamber or to immerse them in baths. In this type of facility, the temperature can be controlled and varied to simulate different environments. This allows a more accurate assessment of how the material will react to the heat.
Perfect temperature control is essential for reliable and accurate testing to ensure the robustness of vehicle components.
The temperature control system was installed as part of a review of the laboratory's testing processes.
The laboratory is responsible for ensuring that materials comply with international standards.
The laboratory’s requirements called for a versatile temperature control system that could be easily integrated with the laboratory’s existing systems and reduce testing time.
Fuji Electric has developed customized temperature control systems to make it easier and more flexible for engineers.
The system is used to control the temperature of a fluid-filled heating block.
The temperature of the heating block with cartridge heaters immersed in the oil bath as well as outside of it. The oil is heated to the required temperature in a progressive manner.
The controller has ramps to ensure that the oil is gradually heated up to the required temperature. This prevents overshoot and ensures process stability.
Overtemperature alarms ensure safe testing.
The control systems offered :
A version with a touchscreen HMI and modular multi-loop controllers was also supplied to record temperature data and ensure test traceability.
The Fuji Electric system ensured reliable and accurate testing and saved time for the laboratory engineers.
Temperature testing with this system ensures that automotive materials comply with international standards.
