Complex speed measurement task on the roller tappet with customised sensors

Speed measurements under difficult environmental conditions:

For the case study, the Rotec Engineering team developed a customised miniature sensor for speed measurement on the roller tappet and used suitable measurement technology and analysis software to deriverecommendations for action.
