Development of Modular Frames Intended For Sealing Cables

When highly customer specific and specialized products needs quick and easy changes it might produce consequences which affects both the producer and customer negatively.A modular product could ease the financial burden and shorten increasedtime in production by offering a product which can be refined by a reseller close to the customer or by the customerContinue reading “Development of Modular Frames Intended For Sealing Cables”

Adaptive Designs for Maritime Environments

Background: Saab, a Swedish defense and security firm, specializes in aerospace, defense, and maritime technologies. Challenges with customized mounts for naval systems hinder maintenance efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Developing standardized mounts could optimize operations, reduce costs, and improve readiness. Corrosion threatens structures, and reducing a vessel’s magnetic field signature enhances safety by lowering detection risk. Ship vibrationsContinue reading “Adaptive Designs for Maritime Environments”

Test Method for Volume-resistivity Measurements on High Voltage Cables

Introduktion. En del av den standardiserade testproceduren för högspänningskablar är att mäta volymresistiviteten på de olika halvledande skikten. Behovet av förbättring har uppstått på grund av den ökade testfrekvensen, vilket är en följd av den senaste utökningen av kabelproduktionen vid NKT i Karlskrona. Syfte. Syftena med detta masterarbete är först att ta reda på vilka behovContinue reading “Test Method for Volume-resistivity Measurements on High Voltage Cables”

Simulations for developing new parts

The automotive industry is reliant on accurate finite element simulations for developing new parts or machines and to achieve this, accurate material models are essential. Material cards contain input about the material model, and are significant; however, time-consuming to calibrate with traditional methods. Therefore a newer method involving Machine Learning (ML) and Feed-Forward Neural NetworksContinue reading “Simulations for developing new parts”

Cables through the cableways

The work is based on a problem at the company NKT HV Cables AB, Karlskrona. NKT manufactures high-voltage cables which are pulled through complex ableways. The cables are stiff and difficult to bend, which results in them getting stuck in the cableways. In some parts of the factory, one cable will push another cable. ThisContinue reading “Cables through the cableways”

Smart solution for brake caliper

The deficient market for technically smart solutions regarding brake calipers presents an opportunity that GETECH AB intends to explore. The task was assigned to the students to investigate how a brake caliper adapted for the rear axle of cars can be integrated with an electrically driven parking brake and a hydraulic handbrake adapted for motorsport.Continue reading “Smart solution for brake caliper”

Developing an autonomous sensor cleaning system

In collaboration with Volvo Group Trucks Technology, Construction Equipment and Innovation Hub, Blekinge Institute of Technology, and Stanford University, a joint effort was made to develop a product for the future market using biomimicry. By conducting needfinding and consulting with users and experts worldwide, it was discovered that there was a need to keep sensorsContinue reading “Developing an autonomous sensor cleaning system”

Tillämpning av lastskenor för standardiserat montage på skott för kompositfartyg

Vid installation av nya föremål ombord på fartygen krävsdet vissa steg för konstruktionsarbete. Första steget är att tafram en bädd, eller med andra ord ett fundament, som äranpassad för föremålet som installeras. Därefter bestämshur dessa bäddar skall monteras ombord på fartygen. Svetsförband är en vanlig metod som används vid montering avbäddarna ombord för ståluppbyggda fartyg.DäremotContinue reading “Tillämpning av lastskenor för standardiserat montage på skott för kompositfartyg”

Examine defects in aluminium profiles

When aluminium profiles are manufactured, defects may arise, especially when the profiles are manufactured through extrusion. During the extrusion process, these defects occur on parts of the extruded material because of contaminates that need to be found.The goal of the project is to examine two different types of methods that are suited for aluminium profilesContinue reading “Examine defects in aluminium profiles”

Failsafe and raise the efficiency of the grinding process in a production environment

The main purpose of this project is to failsafe and raise the efficiency of the grinding process in a production environment by making it possible to detect blockages in initial stages inside the system. The project has been defined to focus on solving the problems concerning the operational safety of the system since it´s mandatoryContinue reading “Failsafe and raise the efficiency of the grinding process in a production environment”
