Today we continue to champion the industry with our
technical, sales, and manufacturing teams. Our goal is to provide the most
responsive, accurate, efficient force measurement solutions for research,
testing, weighing, and control applications.
Further, we understand the importance of each one of our
customer's applications and hold quality manufacturing as our highest priority.
Our in-house design and production allows rapid prototyping, soldering in accordance
with industry standards, and design flexibility, while
our NIST traceable calibration facility provides the capability
for special proof/overload testing as well as a final force calibration on all
products. Finally, Strainsert offers a two year warranty on all Strainsert manufactured
products, twice the typical industry standard.
Our products are used continually in Aerospace, Automotive, Marine and many other industrial
applications. The applications range from simple force measurement solutions up to such cutting edge
products as the Mars Exploration Rover Mission for NASA, the Space Shuttle launching pad and
hydrostatic or submersible vehicles used deep under the ocean's surface.
We look forward to hearing from you and continuing to
provide accurate, rugged, and dependable force transducers.
Internal Gaging Process:
Strainsert transducers utilize a patented internal strain
gage installation process where foil strain gages are bonded and sealed inside
small holes in the transducer. Along with the gages all circuitry, wires,
solder joints, cements, etc. are enclosed inside the transducer metal body not
to be disturbed by environment, rough installation, or years of demanding
service. In addition, all transducer metals are stainless or plated alloy steel
with proven corrosion resistant properties.
| · Stable four-arm-active bridge positioned in concentrated strain path |
| · Increased insensitivity to unwanted bending, torsion and other
extraneous loading conditions common in force measurement applications |
| · Internal gage proximity provides increased stability in the
presence of sudden or localized environmental changes |
| · Self-compensated shear transducers for changing pressure
conditions |
Durability and Dependability Overview |
| · All components internal to host material |
| · Survivable in harsh field applications |
| · Durable for rough installation/removal |
| · Wide operational temperature ranges |
| · Hydrostatic/submersible applications available |
