PICLIA Piezoelectric Wire Sensor for Automobiles

Capturing the subtle vibrations of automotive components, contributing to condition monitoring and predictive maintenance.

In the automotive industry, it is important to capture changes in vibration, sound, and deformation occurring in onboard components during operation to detect signs of abnormalities early. Various components that make up a vehicle, such as motors, pumps, valves, bearings, piping, and seat mechanisms, can be affected by slight deterioration, looseness, or uneven wear, impacting performance and comfort. The PICLIA piezoelectric wire sensor, with its thin and flexible wire shape like a thread, can be easily installed on curved surfaces and in tight spaces, making it suitable for monitoring the condition of onboard components. By sensitively capturing minute vibrations and contact changes, it contributes to abnormal detection, quality assessment, and predictive maintenance of parts. 【Application Scenarios】 - Vibration monitoring of motors and drive system components Capturing minute vibration changes during rotation to identify signs of looseness and deterioration. - Condition monitoring of bearings, gears, and shafts Detecting wear and abnormal vibrations to optimize replacement timing. - Abnormal detection in pumps, valves, and piping systems Capturing vibrations and contact changes in fluid equipment to contribute to early detection of leaks, blockages, and operational failures. - Vibration monitoring of EV onboard components and electrical units Capturing micro-vibrations around battery packs and cooling system components for long-term reliability assessment. - Inspection of onboard components on manufacturing lines.

PICLIA Ribbon Dual Sensor (Piezoelectric & Capacitive)

basic information

【Features】 ♦ Wire-shaped piezoelectric sensor ♦ Wide bandwidth (0.1 to several MHz), capable of observing vibrations over a wide area rather than just points 　⇒ Collects low to high frequencies all at once for overall preventive maintenance of equipment ♦ Captures pressure, vibration, shock, and vital signals with a thin wire ♦ Responds to physical deformation, mounts conforming to shapes like curved surfaces and gloves 　⇒ Application examples: industrial equipment, medical, wearable, sports, etc. ♦ High sensitivity to weak signals such as heartbeat and respiration (Min. 0.003N) ♦ No power supply required ⇒ Contributes to low power consumption systems ♦ Same structure as coaxial cables, capable of sensing with low noise ♦ Usable in harsh environments such as water, oil/solvents, and high temperatures ♦ Compatible with environments from -40 to 120°C, 10 million cycles of bend resistance ⇒ High durability ♦ Integrated molding with resin (up to 120°C) including urethane, TPU, silicone, epoxy, etc.
