Abstract:
This paper presents the development of a system to assist the inspection, repair and calibration of mechanical sleeves. This system contemplates a mechanical device and the underlying software in which the main data acquisition is carried out through a force sensor. The developed system implied the development of specific hardware, based on the platform Arduino, and dedicated software based on C programming language. A user interface to register and store the fulfilled tests was developed. The system allowed to optimize the performance and the efficiency of a manufacturing unit, which, until now, was done using a manual procedure.
