Industrial Computed Tomography as an excellent tool for wall thickness investigation comparing CAD model and the real part made by EN AC-42100 aluminum
Journal Title: Invention Journal of Research Technology in Engineering & Management - Year 2019, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
This paper presents how industrial computed tomography can be used in the automotive world to quality control of aluminum alloys parts. For engineers in Research and Development Center working on the design and manufacturing process, it is essential to produce a real part with quality following customer requirements. The whole process takes time. New car parts are developed usually three to five years. Project Teams involved in designing process, production and logistic work parallel. Each team has to cooperate to create a car with all compatible systems. There are many repetitive steps in each project stage. The work as Mechanical/CAD Engineer is focused on designing CAD model, calculations, stack-ups, simulations analysis and the tests on real parts. All these activities are repeated until the final part will be produced. But even when serial parts are producing the changes come up and the whole re-designing process starts again. As mentioned, it is crucial to catch all internal and external defects. In this case was made initial sample test before design validation. The CT scan of the outlet tank (real part) was overlapped with its CAD model to compare wall thickness. The product is made by EN AC-42100 aluminum.
