A tool used to gauge the stretch or distortion of a cable or wire is known as a cable strain sensor. A length of cable or wire with a number of strain gauges attached at regular intervals along its length normally makes up the sensor. An instrument known as a strain gauge tracks changes in a material’s electrical resistance as it is stretched or distorted.
The strain gauges on the sensor detect changes in the cable or wire’s electrical resistance as a result of tension or compression on the object being measured. After that, this data is sent to a data gathering system where it can be analyzed and utilized to determine the cable’s strain or deformation.
There are several uses for cable strain sensors, including the building and maintenance of tunnels, bridges, and other buildings supported by cables. The strain and deformation of cables and wires in airplanes and spacecraft are also observed using them in the aerospace sector.
Additionally, cables and wires are manufactured and tested using cable strain sensors to make sure they adhere to quality and safety standards.
In order to survive challenging environmental conditions including high temperatures, humidity, and exposure to chemicals or other corrosive substances, cable strain sensors are made to be tough and resilient. Usually, skilled technicians and engineers install and maintain them.
The Global Cable Strain Sensor Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
For force transducers, HBM has unveiled a new line of K-CAB-F connection cables that are intended to work in a variety of testing settings.
The development of the new cables, which contain a number of features intended to minimize the impact on test findings, is the outcome of research conducted by HBM’s licensed EMC laboratory into the effects of electromagnetic fields on force transducers.
In particular, a Faraday cage shielding all the measurement chain’s components is created by galvanically connecting the sensor cable’s shield to the transducer and measuring amplifier cages.
Force measurement is usually cleverly replaced with screw-on strain sensors. They are far more affordable than force sensors, especially for big forces.
Additionally, they enable the coverage of multiple force ranges by a single sensor and enable quick and simple integration into already-existing machines and systems. For industrial indoor applications, Baumer is now also utilizing intelligent force measurement with IO-Link as the new standard with the new DST53 and DST76 strain sensors.
These provide a straightforward route to the most suitable solution for the particular application and maximum machine effectiveness thanks to flexible parameterization and smart functions.
