.. > Basics.. > MIG16 AQS No-compromise quality assurance. MIG16 AQS secures the perfect overall function and quality of the components you produce. In parallel to end-of-line function testing, the system offers tried-and-trusted NVH diagnosis and thus completes the list of quality criteria. You receive relevant, objective statements on assembly errors, missing parts, cog defects and much more. You thus increase your production quality with secure workflows, rapidly and efficiently... > Characteristics.. MIG16 AQS complete NVH solution provides fast good or bad decisions based on relevant, objective statements on the noise of a test subject. This significantly increases the value and meaningfulness of end-offline quality testing - and mostly without making the cycle time any longer. The system is ideally suited for the identification and calculation of all types of cog, engine, pump and turbine noise and performs material testing for metal and ceramic products by analyzing sounds. An automated reporting system which can be tailored exactly to your requirements, provides you with a rapid overview of your measurement data and prepare a reliable trend analysis. Product benefits Objective noise measurement Traceability Production control Cost-cutting Compatibility Fully automated operation MIG16 AQS complete NVH solution s characteristics at a glance: > Can be used in areas of engine, gear or axle production > All of the tried-and-tested vibration analysis methods are available, incl. frequency, order and torsion vibration analysis, level flow, etc. > Real-time calculation: diagnosis OK/not OK is available immediately. > Extremely robust diagnosis via logical post-processing of threshold overruns > Automated, customer-specific reporting including trend analysis can be integrated into the user interface of the test rig Identify MIG16 AQS indicators Assembly errors and missing parts or bearings The noise level of the test subject Cog, pump and turbine noise Knocking, squeaking, scraping, rattling etc. 2/8

.. > Technical Data (short version).. When building the product,... red-ant exclusively uses premium components from well-known manufacturers. In doing so, we make a further contribution to increasing the uptake capacity of test rigs, both in testing and in production. We know: Every hour that a test rig cannot be used because of defects in the measurement technology costs you cash and causes unnecessary delays to lean processes. The hardware... List of AQS indicators all of red-ant s products have a modular structure, the proportion of inhouse hardware development is low. This means that users benefit directly from the rapid further development of the entire control technology market: If new technology is available and has grown out of the cradle, we use it in our products to your advantage. That is faster, more cost effective and robust than any in-house development! > Level rev progress > Level torque progress > Total noise (optional filtering to eliminate test rig signatures) > Order analysis with breathing envelope > Individual allocations > etc. The MIG16 software... is the real heart and soul of red-ant products. We have bundled our entire expertise in terms of vibration technology in this software, and made it easily accessible with user-friendly functionalities. Of course, in addition we also make use all of the standardized NVH methods that have been launched and which are tried-and-tested.
