We Can Design Your Own Strain Gage Sensor (5 Minutes Podcast)
Показать описание
Yes, you can have a tailored strain gage sensor made. (Examples: A strain gage with pre-applied adhesive on the gage backing or a strain gage with a flex circuit)
In this podcast, Darryl and Collin discuss about custom Advanced Sensors Technology strain gage sensors for both stress analysis applications as well as transducers.
Obtaining a quotation on a custom strain gage is not difficult. We need a simple sketch of the strain gage layout showing important dimensions. This sketch can be hand drawn – it does not need to be formal. We also need to know the gage operating temperature range as well as desired grid resistance(s). After receiving this information, one of our customer service representatives will send you a quotation and formal drawing for approval. Once approved, they will provide you with a custom ordering designation. Typically new gage designs require a one-time set-up charge. A typical custom stress analysis gage may be similar to a catalog gage except for perhaps a non-standard resistance, custom alignment marks, special lead wire or oversize/relocated soldering tabs.
Custom Advanced Sensors Transducer-Class strain gages may have similar feature requests to stress analysis gages but more often the custom feature requested is designed to reduce installation labor. Examples are pre-applied adhesive on the gage backing, tray packaging for fast gage removal, dual grids with custom spacing, or even multiple gage grids interconnected as one “assembly”. For example, strain gage transducers typically employ a set array of strain gages, resistor(s) and terminals that are precisely located and connected together by individual wires. This is a labor intensive operation, both for component positioning and for wiring. For high volume production applications, having all of these connections already made on the strain gage itself can be a distinct advantage. Typical examples are compact full bridge diaphragm strain gages where the gage grids are closely spaced.
