‘Strain Gauge Amplifier’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Sherborne announces MEMS inclinometers from
Sherborne Sensors, which we summarised at the time by saying "Sherborne Sensors has announced the launch of the T700 series, a high-precision range of compact, DC-operated solid-state MEMS inclinometers. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Pressure transducers measure up to 20,000psig from
Endevco: "Endevco has announced the 8511A series, a range of piezoresistive gauge pressure transducers designed for maximum reliability in extreme measurement environments. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms UK
- take a look at GE controller firmware has online programming
which says: "GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms has released its Versamax Micro Plus controller firmware revision 4.0. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Igus UK, Igus energy-supply system comprises 200 products,
as well as Dynamometer helps maintain satellite position from Kistler Instruments,
and Giga-tronics switching provides true N x N system from Giga-tronics.
