Power Steering Pumps

Force vs. Distance Press Monitoring

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Precision control and monitoring of power steering pump press-fit assembly
  • 3 laser distance sensors used to perform geometric analysis of final position
  • 100% testing of all  assembled parts
  • SPC charts of press force and position
  • HPGL printing of graphs and charts
  • Full data saving (reports and graphs)

The Sciemetric Press Monitoring System provides more than simple data acquisition - it dynamically controls the height of which a pulley is pressed onto a pump shaft. The system performs various tests with each part - including force and pulley height checks during assembly. The system will also detect a pulley that is deformed or not perpendicular to the pump shaft. All PASS/FAIL parameters are easily edited by authorized personnel through a password-protected entry screen. Data is stored in both SPC and individual press waveform formats.
