6D engineers and technicians are proficient in all areas of strain gage work. From rotating equipment torque measurement to extreme conditions (temperature, submerged, etc.) and fiberglass/composites, we are here to support your data collection requirements – no matter how large or complex.
Six D can assist with:
- On-site strain gage installation and data acquisition
- In-house strain gage installation- small parts under a microscope
- Custom load cells
- In-house pre-wiring of gages
- Consulting: Using FEA models to help determine locations of strain gages, using data to validate the model
- Static strain measurements due to pressure, thermal expansion, constant loads, etc.
- Dynamic strain due to vibration and transient loads
- Torque measurements on rotating shafts
- Extreme temperature
- Dynetics & RUAG – strain gauges installed to be tested in cryogenic environment, also FEC
- Weldable gages installed on exhaust manifolds.
- Submersible
- Dynetics – gages installed inside the tank prepared to be submerged.
- Quarter, half, full bridge wiring configuration
- Custom fixturing for installation of gauges on specific parts.
