Sensor-integrated journal bearings enable new approaches to condition monitoring

As part of the DFG project “Condition Characterization of Hydrodynamic Plain Bearings Based on Capacitive Effects”, Prof. Eckhard Kirchner and Florian Kötz from the Institute for Product Development and Machine Elements at TU Darmstadt visited IKAT. Together with Björn Prase and Prof. Alexander Hasse, the current state of the project was discussed. The developed sensor-integrated
