Application requirements
The ultimate question that has to be answered is, whether or not lubricant has really been dosed during the drilling of a certain hole. Are we sure that if we ‘do’ this hole, we have oil inside? Furthermore, this ‘measuring device’ needs to operate close to the drilling head, so it goes beyond saying that it needs to be sturdy to withstand the drilling head vibration. Moreover, there is limited space available at the robot arm, so the measuring device needs to be compact.
