TRANSPORTATION

With the modernization of the transportation industry, it has become even more essential to ensure that each variety of transportation is built with accuracy and efficiency. To support this, EZMetrology manufactures versatile and intuitive technologies to verify that the quality of a body meets a determined quality and safety standard. The technologies can also provide 3D measurement data to aid in the process of vehicle/transportation development and simulation.

Tire, Wheel, and Doors

EZMotion establishes an accurate relationship between the wheel axis position and orientation relative to the road surface, a crucial parameter in tire testing and simulation. A mobile system records the real behavior on the test track and a fixed configuration is used to reproduce the case in the test rig.

EZMotion Specific Advantages:

  • High-Speed Impact Events

  • 6 degrees of freedom

  • Lightweight for on-track in a mobile Configuration

Trains

The most sought-after goals in the railway industry are to create maximum dependability, safety, cost efficiency, and eco-friendliness. At EZMetrology, we have designed our machines to tailor to these common objectives in testing current trains for their quality, and in helping determine these goals are reached in newly developing trains/railways.

Static/Dynamic of Railway Systems

EZMotion system can be conveniently positioned to measure movements of the rail structures, ties, tracks, or movement of the rail tracks under the different loads (static or dynamic). Measurements and data acquisition can be performed in a controlled lab environment or can be taken outdoors to collect field data to be used in simulations or test file development.

Door System Testing

Applications:

  • In-Line Closing Effort Control Stations

  • Minimum Closing Speed Benchmarking

Technology:

  • A compact gauge to capture minimum closing efforts based on a velocity reading of the door moments before impact.

  • The laser system will work on detecting the speed of any passing object anywhere from 0.1m/sec to 10m/sec.

Advantages:

  • Objective Minimum closing speed reading

  • Guided measurement to determine minimum condition.

  • Go/No-Go tolerance setting

  • Fast Suction cup mounted

  • Optional Wireless Logging

EZMotion

EZMotion is a high speed stereo vision system capable of recording motion, relative motion, deformation of different components in a structure. Single or multiple units can be connected to register all important motion from, for example, the suspension systems. Engine tracking is as well an essential feature of EZMotion. Exact information, accurate unfiltered data is provided to ensure optimal design of the vehicle.

Features

  • IOptimized image processing for reliable measurements in all road and test conditions.

  • Simplified and secure mounting systems.

  • Easy to operate touch screen interface for system manipulation and data recording while operating the vehicle.

  • Interfaces to wheel force transducers [ask us for compatibility].

  • Possibility to synchronize with 3rd party sensors.

SealScan

SealScan is a compact, lightweight, 2D scanning system for fast and accurate measurement of cross section mating surfaces. Seal gap, seal compression and panel alignment are the most popular applications.

Features

  • Measure with all components installed and under real load conditions.

  • Capture any free form surfaces including seal, mounting flange, corner seals, push-over seals.

  • Flexible suction cup base, Battery or Grid Powered operation.

  • Results are shown in real time to avoid gaps or holes in the data set.

  • Processing and dimensioning in a 2D environment to mimic blueprint.

EZ3D

EZ | 3D is an innovative camera system that utilizes a simple “point-and-shoot” interface to measure relative surface part assembly deformations, all within a standalone handheld device. Measures gap/flush/sheer evolutions during climate test, load test of a structure or assembly.

Features

  • Easy to use

  • Uses HD cameras

  • Faster and more accurate than other gauges

  • Measures in three dimensions at once

  • Touchscreen

  • Handheld

  • Import/export automated recording

  • Point-and-shoot

  • Adhesive targets

  • Use in dark and light areas

  • Measure several points in a single snapshot

  • Intuitive work flow

EZSlam

The EZSlam innovative design measures and stores door closing data for the complete closing event. EZSlam integrates precise algorithms and scientific methods into a simple, comprehensive tool for closure measurement. EZSlam translates subjective impressions into objective numbers. It is easy to use and can be operated by non-metrology technicians.

Features

  • Easy to use

  • Compact to transport

  • Reduced testing time

  • Increased accuracy

  • All-in-one measurement

  • Low maintenance

  • Wireless operation

EZMotion

A solution for 3D kinematic inspections in rugged environments. It is used to inspect travel, speed, stability, structural stiffness, and dynamic response of assemblies. Multiple systems can be combined to cover large areas with unprecedented accuracy. Available for different speed and volume configurations.

Features

  • Volume: expandable

  • Speed: up to 2000hz

  • Multi-unit configurations

  • Rugged design

EZEnergy

EZEnergy is a compact device that can be easily installed on any closure, and it will allow the user to capture how much energy he had to apply to the door in order to bring it to a close. The advantage of measuring the energy is that it will also include the effect of check and hinge while classic speed devices only capture the influence of seal and latch.

Features

  • Advanced algorithms for best accuracy and optimal repeatability 

  • Non-abrasive suction cup mount, with quick release 

  • Compact and light stand-alone measurement device: no wires, computer datalogger or external power required
