The electrical contact resistance between two fastener components is a key quality parameter, especially when the bolted joints carry electrical current. If the resistance is too high, heat is generated between the elements. In vehicles, for example, this can lead to malfunctions or even trigger fires. In response to this problem, Kistler is adding the OhmBox to its tried-and-tested ANALYSE friction coefficient test stand. Users of the new OhmBox can measure electrical resistance while fastening is actually in progress. This enables developers to define optimal tightening parameters – so they can design safe and reliable current-carrying bolted joints.

Spray washers typically use flat spray pattern (V-Jet) nozzles to maximize impingement in the cleaning stage. V- Jet nozzles are available in various flow rates and spray angles at a given nozzle pressure.

In the field of laboratory testing, 200Hz is often the go-to frequency for most applications, delivering reliable and precise results in a wide variety of scenarios. It’s a tried-and-true standard that meets the needs of many industries. But what happens when your testing requirements go beyond the typical? That’s where vibration testers with 300Hz capability come into play, offering an exciting opportunity to expand your testing range and unlock new insights.

With the new assembly workstation for pressing and joining Smart Single Station (SST) 2nd Generation, Kistler presents a fully optimized version of the proven servo press workstation for automated assembly and testing processes. The system can either be used as a manual workstation or fully integrated into the production line. The new version is significantly easier to operate, allowing inexperienced employees to perform various assembly and testing processes correctly. Further improvements including easier data export and the newly designed front door ensure smooth workflows on today’s busy shopfloors.

An alternating current (AC) input feeds AC power into your direct current (DC) power supply. Choosing the right AC input for your power converter or switching power supply is critical for ensuring adequate performance, efficiency, and reliability.

Why Vibration Testing Machines Matter in Simulating Transport Conditions

Well before you reach the factory gates, you can see them towering in the distance: the booms of the huge mobile cranes that undergo the most rigorous testing here on the test site at Ehingen, Swabia (Germany) before they are delivered to every corner of the world. To meet its own high standards, Liebherr opts for the cerTEST mobile test system from Kistler for all the power tools in its production facility.
