Dynamic Quartz Force Sensors for Automotive Component Durability and Life-Cycle Testing - PCB Piezotronics

July 21, 2006, Depew, New York, USA – Piezoelectric force sensors from the Force/Torque Division of PCB® Piezotronics, Inc., are well-suited for multi-cycle, high repetition automotive and component test applications. Dynamic quartz force sensors are extremely rigid, allowing high repeatability and over-range protection required for automotive and component testing.

These ICP® and charge output sensors cost-effectively measure compression, tension and impacts encountered in Life-Cycle, Durability & Fatigue Testing, Impact, Drop & Crash Testing, Structural & Modal Testing, and Penetration and Fracture Analysis. A variety of dynamic force sensor configurations and ranges are offered, including ring, three-component ring, link, impact, penetration, and strain styles. ICP® and charge output versions are available and signal conditioning is also offered.
