Fully assembled crash barrier system Strain gauge-based transducers Single-axis or three-axis load cells Compatible with all DAQs Customizable size, load capacity, and number of axes The Instrumented Crash Barrier System includes 64 Load Cells mounted to a rigid mounting plate. Read More …
Speed and position encoder Maximum torque capacity of 50 kN ∙ m Analog and digital signal Additional axes available Rated IP67 The Torque Flange Transducer is capable of measuring torque, speed, and position. The transducer is configured for easy adaptation Read More …
The development and testing of a vehicle’s steering system can be improved and verified through the measurement of steering torque and steering angle using steering wheel transducers. Tests can be done in both the laboratory setting and during normal use. Read More …
The Industry’s Problem Wheel Force Transducers (WFTs) are a simple and highly accurate means for measuring loads from the road into a vehicle’s wheels. Using WFTs to measure road input loads during durability testing is a standard practice in the Read More …
Some equipment needs to be designed with the ability to perform under any conditions. A pintle hitch, for example, is used on vehicles and trailers in environments where standard ball mount trailer hitches may not be up for the job. Read More …
Measuring efficiency is important for the development of any vehicle, but when it comes to Class 8 electric vehicles efficiency can quickly determine the feasibility of the vehicle for potential buyers. With a long charging time, few charging stations large Read More …
Three Axis Load Cells are a valuable tool for measuring real world forces in dynamic systems. They can be easily inserted into a machine or vehicle using custom adapters because of their compact size. When large moment loads are expected, a load platform can be Read More …
Miniature Load Cells Load cells are ideal for measuring forces in a broad range of applications. They output a signal proportional to the mechanical force applied to a system. Because load cells are often designed to handle heavy loads, they Read More …
What do strain gauges measure? The first thing to understand when discussing strain gauges is what they measure. A strain gauge is a sensor whose measured electrical resistance varies with changes in strain. Strain is the deformation or displacement of Read More …
On-vehicle measurements are a critical part of the design validation process when developing a new vehicle. One important test is measuring torque through drive axles. These torque measurements can be made on half-shaft axles for front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive vehicles, or Read More …
