Engineering Faculty Internship: Development of Intelligent Gear Inspection System

该奖项旨在开发一种智能齿轮检测系统，使用非接触式测量传感器快速、准确地测量已制造齿轮的尺寸。该齿轮检测系统正在与一家工业联合赞助商密切合作开发，与传统的齿轮检查仪相比，它将利用激光振动器和接近探头以极快的方式测量齿轮参数。开发评估齿轮的软件也将是该项目的一个组成部分。这一奖项将使一名学者能够与工业共同赞助商密切合作，同时解决一个严重的制造问题，这将对双方都有相当大的好处。提高对大学环境中齿轮制造相关问题的认识将是一个额外的好处。

This award is a to develop an intelligent gear inspection system to measure the dimensions of manufactured gears, quickly and precisely using non-contact measurement sensors. This gear inspection system, which is being developed in close collaboration with an industrial co-sponsor, will utilize laser vibrometers and proximity probes to measure the gear parameters in an extremely rapid fashion in comparison to conventional gear checkers. The development of software to evaluate the gear will also be an integral part of the project. This award which will enable an academic to work in close cooperation with an industrial co-sponsor, while tackling a serious manufacturing problem, will be of considerable benefit to both parties involved. Increased awareness of the problems associated with gear manufacturing in the university environment will be an additional benefit.
