Technology Overview
Dynamic Force Sensor Module.
Taiwan’s aerospace component and fastener suppliers rely on high-cost imported dynamic force sensors for press-forming processes. Moreover, the domestic forging and press-forming industry can neither monitor the quality of processing nor analyze the causes of malfunction due to lack of real-time pressing force monitoring techniques. To address these demands, ITRI offers a complete software and hardware integration scheme through its dynamic force sensor module. This scheme prevents signals from weakening over time through shock-resistant sensors and electrical circuits that can eliminate ambient interference. Also, it reflects the pressing force characteristics in real-time and monitors the forging force distribution curve, helping fastener manufacturers to control production yield and energy consumption, reduce inspection costs, enhance product quality, and increase the added value of products.
Applications & Benefits
This scheme has been adopted by major fastener manufacturers in Taiwan for full product inspections to enhance product quality and stability. The defect rate is lowered to 0 ppm. The objective is to assist domestic forging and press-forming businesses in incorporating AI into manufacturing and improving their production techniques.
