Strain Gauge Training System- Engineering Lab Training Systems Description and Specifications for Lab Tenders
Strain Gauge Training System- Engineering Lab Training Systems.
Technical Description
Strain gauges are used
extensively in sensor systems to detect forces, moments and
deformations. The FL 100 experimentation system provides a comprehensive
introduction to the fundamentals of strain gauges. Three test specimens
for tension, bending and torsion are each fitted with three strain
gauges. The strain gauges are wired into a full bridge configuration. A
defined load is generated with the aid of weights, and the elongations
can then be recorded.
The specimens under test can be inserted
quickly and precisely into the mounting frame. The strain gauge
application area is protected by a Plexiglas cover, which also makes it
clearly visible for inspection purposes. The measuring amplifier unit
delivers the bridge supply voltage, and displays the load-dependent
output voltage. The digital display is programmable, to provide readouts
conforming to the variables being measured. It also features a tare
function to exclude the influence of preloads.
All detachable test components are clearly laid-out and well-protected inside a storage box.
The
well-structured instructional material outlines the technological
fundamentals and provides a step-by-step guide through the experiments.
Three
additional tensile test rods, in aluminium, copper and brass, are
available as accessories, in order to obtain material-specific values
from experiments.
