Sensing Systems for Manufacturing
Mention “quality” and the almost certain response is “tighter dimensional tolerances.” But, with today’s machine tools able to mass produce parts with tolerances we couldn’t even measure just a few years ago, that is quickly becoming a dead-end street. It leads ultimately to a dimensionally perfect product that nobody can afford to buy because of …

Valve manufacturers today are able to inspect parts during assembly rather than after to produce near-perfect fluid pressure relief valves. The Promess Electro-Mechanical Assembly Press (EMAP) uses no pneumatics or hydraulics; instead, press motion is initiated by a servomotor and ball screw. A computer monitors the press ram’s position …

Since Promess introduced its first electric servo-controlled press system in 1991, the success of this technology in intelligent assembly and test systems has spawned a number of competitive products in the market. When there was only one product to consider, the choice was easy. Today, it is a bit more complicated. There are …
Application A manually operated release mechanism is placed into the housing body. A seal is then placed into one of the body halves. Then an air actuated press assembles the two body halves with integrated male and female clips. A torque test is then conducted on the release mechanism to assure proper assembly and …

Application Linkage rod for park lock systems on automotive transmissions. The Park lock mechanism is mounted on a transmission for controlling operation of the transmission and, more particularly, for preventing the transmission from being shifted out of park position until predetermined vehicle operating conditions are met. When the …
