The strain gauges have been designed to be easier to fit by inexperienced or infrequent users.
They are easier to fit in difficult areas and there is no need to solder the gauges onto delicate or sensitive areas.
Strain gauges (SG) measure very small deformations on moving or mechanically loaded test objects.
HBM supplies a wide range of additional data acquisition and analysis equipment to allow forces and stress states to be determined with very high degrees of accuracy.
HBM also provides seminars and hands-on workshops to help end-users improve their knowledge and practical experience of strain gauge technology. Request a free brochure from HBM UK ...
