Measurements at -40°C ambient temperature

We just tested our Q.bloxx XL A104 TCK in the climate chamber at -40°C ambient temperature and it does a perfect job under these extreme conditions.

The Q.bloxx XL A104 TCK provides 8 channels for thermocouples (here as Type K, NiCr/Ni) with standard miniature front sockets.

During a day in the climate chamber at -40°C it was completely frozen. After connecting with power supply to the I/O module it was delivering stable and precise measurement values. When temperature was increasing it passed dew point. We observed no impact on the measurement quality or from condensation during this phase. Our I/O module passed this test successfully – even when the datasheet recommends only -20°C operating conditions.

Force monitoring improves efficiency of Airbus’ Final Assembly Line

In November 2016 the Airbus A350-1000 flew for the very first time. The A350-1000 is part of the A350 XWB family and is Airbus’ largest and most powerful twin-engined airliner ever. Airbus began the assembly of the A350-1000 in September, 2015, less than a year after the first delivery of the A350-900. For maximum flexibility, the existing A350 XWB Final Assembly Line (FAL) can be used for both A350-900 and A350-1000 models.
