Railtrack measurement

Railtrack measurement

The development in the field of high-speed trains demands a great deal of rails and road bed. Changes may have disastrous effects, but are detectable only after a long period of time.
This requires measurement technology suitable for long-term supervision and braving the weather.

Height measurement

Height measurement

Imagine you want to know the height of a multi-story building and you do not have a yard stick at hand?
Very simple: Install a DAQ system connected to a laptop in the elevator, connect an acceleration sensor to it, go up, let a software calculate a double integration afterwards, and there you have the covered distance.
A perfect job for NextView®4.

Car racing

Car racing

Developments and concepts in car racing are trend-setting for the automotive sector. In Hamburg a group of students of engineering technology is developing a racing car in the context of an international competition. A data logger is the optimum solution for the accquisition of automotive data during road tests. bmcm measurement technology supports Hawk07!

Power of a ship

Power of a ship

At the end of the production of a container ship, a final test run or trip is done to check all units for proper operation. One important criterion is the power output of the driving unit in connection with the fuel consumption as this relation is decisive for the economic operation of a ship.

Wind energy

Wind energy

Measuring the efficiency of wind power plants is the only reliable way to make energy predictions clarifiying the question of amortization and so finally the acceptance of regenerative energies. In addition, meteorological data can be recorded simultaneoulsy.

Stress tests

Stress tests

Finding out how the body is reacting to physical stress can help detect health problems early enough or give concrete recommendations for training.
In a stress test on a bicycle or treadmill, electrodes are attached to the upper part of the body transmitting the pulses to the electrocardiogram. The exercise load is increased every few minutes and the blood pressure is taken at each level.

Zeppelin NT

Zeppelin NT

Airships have been built again since several years in Friedrichshafen. The quiet, smooth floating of the Zeppelin NT ("New Technology") gives the feeling of lightness, its superior flight characteristics open the door to many different fields of operation. The quietness is deceiving. The zeppelin is exposed to enormous forces and many tests are needed before start-up.

  • strain gauge measurement at the supporting structure
  • measurement of torsion, rotation speed, temperature, etc.
