With the help of the steering wheel scale RNW 2009 from ROMESS, the steering wheel can be reliably and conveniently adjusted to a correct zero position. Up to now, this data transfer has been affected via Bluetooth. Now, the RNW 2009 works on the basis of wireless transmission. The advantage here is that the measured data can be transmitted entirely interference-free. In addition, the operating range used here is more extensive than that offered by Bluetooth.
“Just another improvement we’ve made to this product,” says ROMESS head Werner Rogg. We are particularly proud of the radio receiver, which was developed in-house, and which is more efficient than commercially available radio receivers.
The new Romessage has arrived! Among other things, the focus of this issue is on our cleverly designed aligners for driver assistance systems. From the very beginning, we've developed products of this kind, and they all correspond to our philosophy: A workshop solution must provide advantages to the operator. They must assist him in allowing him to perform his job quickly and economically.
Furthermore, we provide yet another report about the USM 20128 ultrasound leak detector, which has been very well received by the market.
Once again, ROMESS is represented in the current issue of the Krafthand online workship catalog with a series of interesting products. Here, workshop pros will find what they value the most when it comes to top-quality equipment. Deserving of attention is the “media center” button in the catalog, where you can download a ROMESS video clip on the topic of brake maintenance.
The current 20-2013 issue of specialist journal KRAFTHAND features a comprehensive report on the significance of intact brake fluid: Brake fluid can only be safely and reliably transferred at high temperatures if it is changed on a regular basis. Obviously, the editors at Krafthand have had a look around among the specialists, with the result that this comprehensive article appears entirely under the banner of ROMESS. Author Rudolf Guranti describes how you arrive at “soft brakes” - to the problem which, at the present time, only ROMESS devices can come to grips with on the basis of their patented conveyor technology. “Brake fluid possesses a negative characteristic, namely, it absorbs water and binds chemically with it. Over time, more and more water particles accumulate in the brake fluid. On the one hand, this water causes corrosion on the inner metal surface of the brake components, such as the main brake cylinder or wheel cylinders. On the other hand, it forms vapor bubbles that lower the boiling temperature. This means the more water there is in the brake fluid, the lower the boiling temperature. And because this mixture heats up when the brakes are applied, too high a water content can lead to total failure of the braking system, since not enough brake pressure is allowed to build up.”
The 8911 Brake Tool rounds off our portfolio of brake maintenance accessories. It can be used in vehicles of all makes and brands and is specifically designed for the demands of ROMESS equipment. The tool permits its user to work with ease and comfort. It connects with the Onboard Diagnosis Interface (OBD 2) and uses this to communicate with the servomotor. The latter operates the braking system in repair mode; now the brake linings can be changed. The device can be easily steered using four keys and is equipped with a display that continually provides the mechatronics engineer with information regarding the status of the application.
