Sciemetric has launched noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) and torque testing systems, SigPOD NVH and SigPOD Torque, which combine automated on-the-line and off-line analysis using QualityWorX.
Using Sciemetric's proprietary Signature Analysis software, the SigPOD Press is able to collect and analyze, in real time, thousands of data points from a press-fit operation.
With the ability to monitor variances in one to four ram press-fit processes, the SigPOD Press can provide immediate detection of defective parts.
Unlike other press-fit monitoring systems, SigPOD Press is uniquely capable of detecting process problems as well as defective parts.
Most competitive systems simply measure a limited number of data points, which can result in missed defects or rejected good parts.
The SigPOD Press has the ability to analyze the entire signature of each press-fit operation leading to consistent test results and fewer false failures than other press-fit monitoring solutions.
The advanced limit management capability of the SigPOD, including auto-learn and maintain of limits, also leads to better and easier limit setting and fewer false rejects.
The SigPOD Press is a compact, economical solution that can act as a stand-alone unit to monitor press-fit operations on manual workstations.
It can also be seamlessly integrated into your assembly process and act under the control of a PLC.
Easy to install and user friendly, the SigPOD Press system is setup through a wizard menu system for your specific press-fit monitoring needs in a matter of minutes, unlike other press-fit monitoring solutions that require costly on-site installation by a 3rd party.
"SigPOD Press delivers a system that will greatly improve defect detection of press-fit operations," said Nathan Sheaff, President and CEO of Sciemetric Instruments "SigPOD Press answers one of the biggest pains facing today's manufacturers: false failures.
SigPOD Press generates fewer false failures and at the same time finds more defects than competitive press-fit monitoring systems.
When the system does indicate a defect, factory floor personnel will have confidence in the results of the system." The SigPOD Press Test System is now available to customers.
