Aerospace

In aviation, the highest requirements are placed on installed components in terms of safety and reliability. This especially applies to sensors which are used in different places. For example in aircraft assembly, sensors from Micro-Epsilon ensure non-contact rivet hole measurement. Micro-Epsilon develops displacement and position sensors for aircraft measurement tasks landing gear, wing assembly, fuselage and engines, where they enable reliable determination of measurement values.

Load tests on aeroplane wings

In order to optimise the behaviour of wings during a flight, the wings are already subjected to vibration tests during the construction. 120 wireSENSOR string potentiometers are connected to the wing and synchronized. In this way, any change of…
