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

April 5, 2007, Depew, NY, USA – New piezoelectric force sensors from PCB Piezotronics (PCB®) 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.

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.
