3 Day Open Conference
Best practices in the use of non-contact capacitive smart displacement, gap and hole sensors for aircraft and aircraft engines
Tuesday 18th November 2008
11.40 - 12.00
Auditorium 1
Latest feedback from end users in the development of "Next Generation" capacitive multiple stage Engine Rebuild Eccentricity and Fan Blade Length (longest blade) Measurement Systems based on Windows newest techniques using capacitive displacement gap and bore diameter sensor technology for aerospace applications including: Simultaneous eccentricity measurement of multiple HPC or HPT stages in engine production or rebuild using new LiniGage system based on Windows fan blade length and blade tip gap measurement for GE90, GENx, CF6, CF34, RR Trent and others using Portable "Electronic Feeler Gauge" gap instruments in carbon composite and metal aircraft structures. Automated mapping of bore diameter dimensions on fuselage and wing fasteners holes replacing time consuming split ball and other contact methods.
