For cyclic measurements on vehicles with multiple doors, a quick and easy implementation is of great importance. For this purpose, software was developed for the clamping force measuring device, which drastically reduces the measurement process and the effort involved in documentation. With just a few operating steps, the measurements of a complete vehicle can be taken over, evaluated in tabular or graphic form and then printed out as a report.
We provide suitable interfaces (e.g. Microsoft® DLL or National Instruments® LabVIEW) for integration into an automated test procedure.

PC software PinchPilot
Our "PinchPilot" software is used to evaluate the data obtained during closing force measurements. No additional software is required for daily work.
Data export
PinchPilot provides all the functions required for routine measurements. Should the data nevertheless be processed further in another room, there are various types of export to choose from:
Text export: measured values as a series of numbers; can be imported e.g. into Microsoft Excel
Image export: log or single diagram in EMF format; can be imported, e.g. into Microsoft Word Measurement data can be exported as ppdx (XML format) and imported with our other software tools for further processing
SQL database: A customer-specific SQL interface can be implemented on request
National Instruments DataPlugin (for import into Diadem or LabView)
Evaluation according to PinchPilot guidelines
