| Examples of systems developped by AOIP |
| Non-contact measurement of disk brake performance features |
Requirements: Performance (braking efficiency, brake life time...) depends on:
- Rotation Thickness Variation (RTV)): Not even and steady disk brake thickness
- Run out: Axis shift during rotation
- Wobbling: Unveven rotation or movement |
 |
-> Automotive: disk brake manufacturers
-> Manufacturers of test bench: ageing test bench, automate non-contact distortion measurement |
Two or more capacitive sensors
Two or more conditioning units
Multi-channel data acquisition unit
Real-time processing and easy-to-customize data management software (developped under Labview®) |
| |
|
| Humdity control inside bulk |
Requirements:
- High accurate and sensitive humidity measurement inside bulk
- System adapted to field environment
- Measurement allowed up to water saturation |
-> Food processing: Producers of dried food, powders...
-> Agriculture: Optimisation of irrigation, seed depth...
-> Plastic industry: Control of solids content of plastic granules...
-> Pharmacy: Research on humidity level optimisation, control of storage conditions, compliance to drug safety standards...
-> Material: Paper, wood, cement, sand, phosphate... |
 |
 |
Some solutions already exist to measure humidity, although with big drawbacks:
- Infra-red technology: Drawback: Surface test only
- Impedance technology: Drawback: little accurate solution due to simple phase test
- Other drawback: Exisiting solutions are only suitable for laboratory measurement of humidity |
|
| |
|
| Optimisation of compressor and turbine efficiency |
Requirements:
- High frequency acquisition (up to 300 kHz) of distance values
- Very accurate data acquisiton system
- Dedicated software |
-> Energy: Manufacturers of turbines, blades, compressors...
-> Aircraft: Test of turbine design, blade tip clearance, blade tip timing, control of blade safety... |
