The bonded electrical resistance strain gage is the most widely used point measurement method employed in structural and materials testing as well as serving as the signal generator for a broad range of commercial and specialty transducers. Vishay Micro-Measurements strain gages and M-Line installation accessories have become recognized as the world's premier high-quality precision strain gages over the past 40 years. A full array of instrumentation is also available, ranging from single-channel strain indicators to multi-channel hardware/software StrainSmart data systems.
In addition to a wide range of General Purpose gages for strain measurements, Special-Purpose gages are available for residual stress determination, crack detection and propagation, concrete embedment, and applications on plastic materials. Strip gages for strain gradient investigations are also available, as well as weldable strain gages and temperature sensors. PhotoStress® is a full-field technique providing an accurate, economical and portable means for qualitative and quantitative stress analysis of virtually any part of structure, regardless of geometric complexity or material composition. Tekscan's thin sensor technology allows for minimally intrusive contact stress (z-axis) measurements, resulting in the least disturbance to the true stress pattern. These sensors coupled with Tekscan's interface hardware, data acquisition electronics, and software, turn your PC into a complete measurement system that delivers high-resolution tactile pressure/stress data. Full-field qualitative and quantitative data is presented in real-time 3-D and 2-D color images and is easy to collect, understand, and analyze. |
