Pressure Waveform Acquisition and Analysis, From The Inside-Out

EVENT SPEAKERS
EVENT INFORMATION
  • Friday 9th - Saturday 10th June, 2023
  • Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre, Glenelg Street, South Brisbane QLD 4101

This session with Brandon Steckler will take the pressure-transducer novice to a whole new level. Technicians with labscope/engine mechanical operation knowledge will learn how to capture pressure waveforms (from the intake manifold/tailpipe and in-cylinder) and use the information to make diagnostic-decisions.

The course will cover transducer functionality with both absolute transducers as well as delta transducers. It will touch on the benefits and characteristics of both types of transducers and how they can be used to gain an edge.

Brandon will show his approach using real world examples including case studies from his own library. Attendees leave with confidence to invest in the tooling to perform pressure testing and analysis to improve accuracy and efficiency. The session will be an introductory overview of this important topic.

Speaker Bio
Brandon Steckler
Brandon began his career at Northampton County Community College in Bethlehem, PA. There, he was a student of GM’s Automotive Service Educational program. In 2001, he graduated top of his class and earned the GM Leadership award for his efforts. He later began working as a technician at a Saturn dealership in Reading, PA where he quickly attained Master Technician status. He later transitioned to working with Hondas where he aggressively worked to attain another Master Technician status. Always having a passion for a full understanding of system/component functionality, he rapidly earned a reputation for deciphering strange failures at an efficient pace and became known as an information specialist amongst the staff and peers at the dealership. In search of new challenges, he once again transitioned away from the dealership and to the independent world, where he specializes in diagnostics and drivability. Today, he is the Technical Editor of Motor Age Magazine and an instructor with both CarQuest Technical Institute and WorldPAC Training Institute. Along with beta testing for Automotive Test Solutions, he continues to write for Motor Age Magazine and develops curriculum/submits case studies
