Taking computer tomography to a new level of quality

Visiting Wieland Electric in Bamberg

“Tradition meets innovation” and that doubly

We visited our customer Wieland Electric in Bamberg and show you in our user story how the traditional company took its quality processes to a new level with our eXact L computer tomograph. Get exclusive insights into Wieland's new showroom and get to know the many benefits of our CT in the quality laboratory.

Wieland and WENZEL stand for quality Made in Germany and both companies also have the motto “Tradition meets Innovation” in common. Founded in 1910, Fritz Wieland laid the foundation for the company with his slit clamp, the so-called Wieland clamp, which is today primarily active in the Building Solutions and Industry Solutions divisions. Wieland Electric supports customers from project planning through to project completion.

In the more than one hundred years that Wieland has existed, there have been some changes. From a component provider to a solution provider, Wieland has constantly developed. The focus was always on quality and ensuring it. And this is where WENZEL comes in.

On a new level with the eXact L

Before the WENZEL eXact L 250 moved into Wieland, all the innovative, waterproof connectors must be embedded, sawn, ground, polished and then tested for their quality using 2D measurement microscopes. With the eXact L 250 from WENZEL, quality assurance was raised to a new level. Typical faults in plastic components such as cavities, material distortion or even material accumulations in unwanted areas are not uncommon and must be corrected before further processing.

With WENZEL CT, these defects can be identified immediately by non-destructive testing of plastic parts. This enables Wieland to test the quality of their products in a complicated and, above all, quick way. Using a target/actual comparison, the parts are analyzed by CT and their quality is evaluated.

Accurate measurement results at the push of a button

The WENZEL CT device is characterized above all by its intuitive user interface. As with the example of Wieland, testing processes can be carried out non-destructively and, above all, in a fraction of the time required for testing before. In its performance class, the eXact L 250 is one of the most compact on the market. It has three independent axes and offers impressive X-ray performance. With its hardware and software, the eXact L 250 can be easily integrated into the production line and thus provides the market-oriented answer to questions relating to Industry 4.0.
