SCHATZ(R)-cerTEST Mobile Special Version

To ensure the traceability of bolted assembly processes (such as according to VDI 2862), approximately 600 assembly drive spindles must be checked every year. This requires the spindles to be dismounted, and some of them must be sent to a service provider for checking. This entails a major logistics effort and generates high costs.

The difficulties:

1. To avoid interrupting the ongoing bolted assembly process, the spindles are checked during the plant holiday shutdown. Employees must be made available to handle the logistics processes.

2. In some cases the entire system must be checked, including the controller.

3. For some of the equipment, dismounting the spindles is very complicated and time-consuming.
