Inertial sensors for high-performing delivery vans

Delivery vans are workhorses. Driver’s doors, rear doors and sliding doors may be opened and closed hundreds of times a day – while potholes, vibrations and changing operating conditions add further stress. Ensuring these components remain reliable over years of intensive use requires rigorous endurance testing.

This is where ASC inertial sensor technology delivers critical measurement data.

In week-long endurance tests, the ASC 4415LN uniaxial accelerometer and ASC 271 uniaxial gyroscope precisely capture accelerations, rotational movements, maximum speeds and reversal points. Engineers use this data to realistically reproduce loads on test benches and optimize component dimensioning, material selection and vibration damping.

With its flat design and outstanding signal-to-noise ratio, the ASC 4415LN is ideally suited to demanding test-bench applications. The robust ASC 271, meanwhile, reliably measures dynamic rotational movements even in harsh conditions.

The payoff? More durable components, greater operational stability, delivery vans engineered for demanding everyday service and a longer service-life.
