PCRT code: Digital component DNA increases testing reliability and
optimises process control
Quasar Europe, represented by Hesselmann & Köhler Prozessautomation GmbH, is demonstrating the function of the non-destructive, fully automatic material testing method Process Compensated Resonance Testing (PCRT) live at the fair booth. PCRT compensates
process variations and tests safety-related, failure-critical components for structural irregularities, at the same time reliably tracking down causes of faults inside the components which
are invisible from the outside.
Alongside the checking of functional relevance and quantification of the degree of
damage caused by faults, a further special feature is the assignment of a unique PCRT
code to every component tested (100 percent test), which also allows conclusions to
be drawn about physical characteristics of the component at a later date (“component
DNA”). Every device under test is given its own specific digital PCRT fingerprint – with
the information documented permanently in the Quasar database. This means that
PCRT makes a significant contribution to optimising process reliability and quality,
beyond the actual testing procedure itself.
The method is particularly suitable for all branches of industry where products have to fulfil
demanding safety and quality requirements, such as the automotive, aviation and turbine
industries as well as medical engineering.
