Technology Advancements in EV Inspection

Different component characteristics in electric vehicles lead to higher noise and load requirements in the automotive industry. E-mobility—to a certain degree—is changing how gear analysis and inspection is carried out. Dissecting noise issues in gears and gearboxes requires an analytical approach like a detective. The problem could stem from the design itself, tolerancing or tip/root relief issues, tooth flank form deviations like waviness or perhaps crowning issues that directly impact noise. Every aspect of gear production needs to be examined to provide the most accurate results.

Ultimate precision and flexibility

Ultimate precision and flexibility

If gears are not manufactured to the required standard they can wear quickly. Machines built for gear inspection must perform to a higher specification than the machines used to manufacture them. Liebherr offers a wide range of gear measuring devices to get the job done.
