Engineers are constantly faced with new challenges when it comes to speed measurements under difficult environmental conditions.

One example is the measurement on the roller tappet or bearing to determine causes of wear and tear: Which sensor technology is suitable due to the tight space and extreme conditions such as high temperature and oily environment? And how can meaningful results be achieved? 

The following case study describes how the engineering team of Rotec Engineering, developed a customized miniature sensor for speed recording on the roller tappet and derives recommendations for action using suitable measurement and analysis software.
