Important results from the project

Our assessment is that the project has delivered according to the goal; to develop pre-serial prototypes which have been tested in initial field-like tests. In tests with our partners Hallingplast AB and Alfa Laval AB various prototypes - developed and tested in collaboration with RISE - could be evaluated. Important insights have been gained and therafter necessary adaptions to our solutions.

Expected long term effects

Our assessment is that the project has delivered according to the goal; to develop pre-serial prototypes which have been tested in initial field-like tests. Important experiences have been gained that influenced e.g. the choice of radio technology. The project has contributed to a better understanding of actual customer needs, which in turn has contributed to the optimization of solutions. The project has also greatly contributed to increased customer interest with an increased insight into the complexity of bolted joints and the need for increased control of the clamping force.

Approach and implementation

The project has been carried out in a collaboration between TensionCam Systems, RISE, Alfa Laval and Hallingplast AB with TensionCam as project coordinator. The collaboration has worked well. A good dialogue could be established. The parties have been quick to respond to the need for adaptations. In an industrialization project of this nature, the requirement for adaptability is high. The project plan with different WPs has been followed, some WPs were carried out faster than the plan.

The project description has been provided by the project members themselves and the text has not been looked at by our editors.
