Aircraft Armament Hardware Testing
Description:
Strainsert sensors were used to measure both carriage system preload and reactive load and pylon structural component load during flight and weapon release. Strainsert also internally instrumented customer provided retention hardware to measure loads transferred from the fuel tank or suspended weapon systems during flight.
Product:
Instrumented Load Pin and Customer Supplied Bolts
Special Requirement:
High loads, space limitations for sensors, rapid temperature fluctuations
Aircraft Hardware (External Gaging for R&D Testing)
Description:
Strainsert externally instrumented multiple aircraft components including arresting hardware, control rods, steering joints and rod eyes for customer testing and evaluation.
Product:
External gaging per customer specifications
Special Requirement:
Shock and impact loading in marine environment. Customer specified gage and tab placement. Environmental protection using specialized coatings and adhesives.
Military Drone Joint Testing
Description:
A custom load pin designed to monitor military drone joint testing
Product:
Internally Gaged Custom Load Pin
Special Requirements:
Light weight, compact and high strength
Evaluation of Jet Engine Attachment Joints and Inner Control Values
Description:
Custom load pins integrated into aircraft or jet engine interface attachment joints and at jet engine internal mechanical critical pin joints to determine interface and control forces. Custom pins were also designed for cowling forces encountered during destructive testing.
Product:
Custom Load Pins
Special Requirement:
System integration, multiple joints, high strength, and exterior temperatures
