Description

Initial situation:

The friction behavior of wet brakes and clutches is subject to complex interactions among the friction material, steel disk, and lubricant and therefore often requires experimental testing. To implement serial test parts from automotive and industrial applications into the component test rigs at the institute, adapter modules for different dimensions and mechanical loads are designed and manufactured. However, this development is currently time-consuming, as the insitute is missing a standardized decision and design process.

 

Objective:

Within the scope of this thesis, a structured database will be developed after conducting an inventory of existing adapter modules. Based on the resulting data analysis, an automated workflow for generating CAD models and deriving drawings will be created. Furthermore, a standardized process will be implemented to significantly reduce the request-to-test lead time by enabling the rapid identification of suitable existing adapter modules and the automated creation of new modules.

Requirements

• Interest in the field of drive technology

• Experience with Catia V5 desirable

• Ability to work independently and well-structured
