The miniature strain sensors DST20 add a compact and cost-effective solution to the Baumer portfolio for measuring large forces above 10,000 N even in tight spaces. The DST20 miniature strain sensors save space in a way that no other screw-on strain sensor can match, with dimensions of 28x12x10 mm.
The electrical resistance that is measured by a strain gauge changes as the strain changes. Strain is the material’s deformation or displacement caused by applied stress. The force applied to a material divided by its cross-sectional area is called stress.
A device that measures an object’s strain using fiber optical technology is known as an optical strain gauge or fiber optic strain sensor.
When the object that is attached to it experiences a load, it detects changes in the transmission of light. It is useful in small spaces due to its small size, which is typically the diameter of a human hair.
The Global Miniature strain sensor market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The G1350 C2K-Series strain gauge, a miniature stacked rectangular rosette sensor designed to meet the growing demand for precise, consistent, and dependable stress analysis of PCBs even in harsh environments, has been introduced by Micro-Measurements.
The G1350 is made to look for PCB surface strains in important places. Its smaller size and higher resistance of 120 ohms and 350 ohms make it ideal for use in robotics, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), autonomous vehicles, and other areas.
The new C2K series strain gauges are based on cutting-edge technology manufacturing processes that enable high resistance in small-gauge patterns and were developed in accordance with the same stringent standards as conventional Micro-Measurements gauges.
For spot-on installation on surface-mount components, the uniaxial linear stacked rosette C2K-06-G1350-350 has an active grid length of 0.040″ and an overall matrix diameter of 0.20″. By removing the need for lead wire soldering after bonding, the three-conductor cable with a pre-attached length of 3 meters is designed to simplify and accelerate installation processes.
As electronics become smaller, their component densities will rise, their thermal stresses will rise, and their need for impact stress survival will grow. A thorough understanding of strains in the PCB and on-board components is required to meet these requirements.
Strain gauge measurement is the most accurate, quickest, and least expensive method for detecting strains on a PCB. It can also be used to create loading fixtures and test plans to make the testing phase more efficient.
