Door Rings: Maintain structural integrity with smart monitoring
The industry is constantly trying to meet the increasing demand for efficiency by improving the crash test performance of components while reducing weight as much as possible. This is why it is so important to have different manufacturing techniques for different auto body parts.
Door rings are a clear example: they are made from different segments brought together, some of which need to be heat treated differently. In this case, the surface must be properly monitored to achieve the desired component properties and avoid defects.
The Selmatec PH-Inspector provides all the information you need in an intuitive and user friendly interface to maintain the structural integrity of the door ring by accurately monitoring the temperature in zones, transition zones as well as on patches to ensure the success of the desired heat treatment in volume production. System integration with the latest line scanner, the MP300, makes monitoring possible even at high transfer speeds, thanks to its 300Hz measurement frequency.
