    For controlling the test benches with the maximum flexibility

    AMET Control Software

    It is the software for data acquisition and motion control, fully configurable and customizable for every use:
    •   Durability tests
    •   Characterization
    •   End of line validation

    The human machine interface has a user-friendly design which doesn’t require computer’s skills.

    Key points are:

    •   Managing of number of cycles, force and speed limits, events history (alarms, status, etc), test stop and restart strategies
    •   Graphical definition of the sequence of actions for each test cycle
    •   Managing of paramenter sets depending by climatic chamber temperature
    •   Hardware interface and test cycle synchronization with climate chamber and external devices
    •   Real time data acquisition and online visualization
    •   Remote Viewer for remote monitoring

    APPLICATIONS

    VEHICLE CLOSURES TEST

    Tailgate, Trunk, Swing rear door

    Side door, Sliding side door

    Hood

    For Entire system or Single component.

    Industry 4.0 compliant test bench to simulate human behaviour to open and close hood, side door, tailgate, trunklid, swing rear door from outside and inside, for passenger or commercial vehicles. Adaptable to any closure handles and unlocking mechanisms, bench works from -40°C to +90°C with 95% R.H. Electronic control with brushless motors ensure reliability, precision, accuracy. Ergonomic console and user-friendly interface simplify bench setting.

    Main technical specifications:

    • Opening and closing closures from inside and outside
    • Most of closures opening mechanisms supported
    • Usable for passenger cars and commercial vehicles
    • Linear actuation to perform closure opening, actuating opening levers
    • Capability of windows synchronization
    • Capability to set opening and closing component speed, delay before movements, maximum force allowed for the unlocking phases
    • Component characterization through torques/forces and speeds measuring
    • Automatic Report generation
    • User friendly HMI
