ROTATION & TORQUE
ROTATING TEST ARTICLES
IN SITU TESTING OF FATIGUE LIFE, TORQUE MEASUREMENTS & TRANSIENT LOAD DATA
Testing Challenges:
- Collecting data on rotating test articles like drive shafts or rotors
- Cost and maintenance of slip rings
- Complicated cable runs to sensors
- Accuracy of alternative test methods eg, engine dynomometer
DTS Key Features:
- Miniature rugged data acquisition systems and sensors
- Embeds on/in the test article eg, on a drive shaft or rotor blade
- Modular, configurable, low and high-channel-count tests
- Onboard memory, data writes to non-volatile flash memory
DID YOU KNOW? The University of Florida Formula SAE used SLICE NANO to collect transient load data to calculate fatigue-life of drivetrain and suspension components to improve acceleration performance, plus tuning of spring and dampers to improve acceleration performance. The low power draw of SLICE NANO made it easy; three 9V batteries were wired in parallel and attached to the rotating shaft. See the University of Florida Formula SAE White Paper
