Hoist Universal Automatic Test System


Understanding Your Engineering Needs:



Our client had a unique need for a next generation testing system to test multiple hoist units (of various types and specifications) with minimum change over.  This requirement presented a remarkable challenge that just added to each project’s timeline and budget.



Solution:



ENSER Corp’s engineering team designed a Universal Automatic Test System (UATS) capable of testing the functionality across 38 different configurations.



The system has the capability of operating hydraulic, DC and 400hz AC powered hoists in a cost effective, consistent and timely manner. The test devices contain an automatic unit identification and universal loading system, control software with embedded acceptance procedures and operational safety limits.



ENSER’s design provided a simplified test system solution with a combined control and measurement console and text fixture, which enabled our client to complete each test in a fraction of the time currently needed, reduced cost per test,  and  reduce operator input and possible errors  with defined  and embedded  protocols, which included:



• Operation manual with calibration and maintenance instructions

• OEM manuals

• Software description manual, test flow charts and build instructions

• Schematics

• Integrated ATP/Engineering operation modes



Features:



• Rugged, frame suitable for test conditions

• Electro-Mechanical take-up system (providing tension load)

• Hydraulic Power Unit

• Rotary Encoder (for measuring cable speed)

• Force Cell for measuring load

• Electrically interlocked guarding system for protection;

• Unit mounting (accommodating various mounting configurations)

• Human Machine Interface (HMI)

• Pneumatically-shifted transmission for load drive system



ENSER’s commitment to providing complex engineering solutions for maximum performance, in terms of operating environments, time and budget constraints, are at the core of our engineering services divisions. 



So when your budgets and project timelines are not being met due to antiquated and  ineffective systems or manual processes, rest assured that ENSER Corp. has over 70 years of engineering expertise, in a number of different industries, in solving complex problems that affect your productivity and bottom line.
