Thetis® Dyna|Therm CM Integrated fiber optics FBG stress and thermal dynamic/real time monitoring system for composites tools, moulds and structures. TECHNICAL FEATURES Continuous high sampling rate temperature monitoring inside moulds, without limitation on the number of installed FBG sensors. Real time monitoring and 3D visualization of the deformations induced by mechanical and thermal stress during curing process for any kind of structure FBG sensors/FEM/FEA direct interface FBG/FEM/6DOF industrial robots integration for dynamic, real time continuous stress cycle monitoring on medium-large size objects Thetis Dyna|Therm is a real time thermal and stress monitoring/visualization industrial system of composite material tooling, components and structures, regardless of geometry, weight, ambient and operating conditions. Thanks to the special physical and technical characteristics of optical fibers, an almost unlimited number of FBG sensors can be inserted along a single fiber, each one of them dedicated to the sampling of temperature, strain, vibration and shape changes. The Thetis Dyna|Therm system output, in addition to being displayed on video, tablet or smartphone, can be exported both in ASCII, CSV, XLS and in graphic format, representing precisely and uniquely the behavior of structures subjected to thermal and mechanical stresses. The Thetis Dyna|Therm/FEM direct interface allows dynamic display of the effects inducted by thermal and/or mechanical stress on the theoretical 3D CAD model, allowing immediate correlation between theoretical and real data.

ACE-DigiLab-BestProjects- ©2013 FBG FIBER BRAGG GRATINGS SENSORS TECHNOLOGY AND USE The new frontier of dynamic-on-board mechanical and thermal measurements and real time/reporting forces monitoring system integration. The sensitive part of a FBG sensors chain is represented by a segments of FBG with a length variable between 10 and 20 mm insertable along an optical fiber 125 um, exactly at the points where the sampling is required. A single optical fiber can carry dozens of FBG sensors connected in series, with a dramatic reduction of weight and size compared to sensors based on electrical technology, which requires a dedicated double wiring for each sampling point. With the FBG sensing technology it is possible to define measuring chains of hundreds of meters, with elementary bonded or embedded wiring and a compact, reliable, certified hardware and software. AEROSPACE RAIL Temperature measurements Deformation measurements Strain and temperature 1 m/span distributed measurement up to 60 km managed by one single hardware Vibration measurements Load measurements Pressure measurements Total active and passive electromagnetic immunity, regardless of the working conditions. Chemically inert and almost insensitive to oxidation and erosion by weathering. Weight and dimensions extremely reduced: insertion error close to zero Very long range WiFi and Satellite measurements and monitoring data transmission. With the FBG sensing technology it is possible to define measuring chains of hundreds of meters, with elementary sticked or embedded wiring and a compact, reliable, certified hardware and software High flexibility of use and high sensitivity of measurement and sampling Easily embedded in a stable manner within materials and complex structures No more calibration required after installation. FBG sensors can operate totally submerged in a liquid or in a hydrocarbon, up to 400 °C FBG integrated sensing systems are competitive solutions in terms of cost and performance compared to traditional sensors.
