Keep in touch with RDP's 'Transducer Action'
The Spring 2000 issue of 'Transducer Action' - the regular newsletter from RDP Electronics - is now available.
In this issue, RDP focuses on what it takes to create an integrated measurement solution using single-channel techniques.
There is also a practical example of the success of this scheme from the UK's leading tail-lift manufacturer.
Ratcliff Tail Lifts employed an RDP single-channel solution to save the cost of its established destructive testing techniques previously used for load testing new product developments.
By simultaneously measuring load and deflection and combining the data using two E725 conditioner/display units linked to a PC with RDP software freely downloadable from the website - designers can now plot a stress/strain graph in real time which shows precisely the anticipated yield point at any position on the tail lift.
Continuing its regular educational theme, "Understanding accuracy" explores measurement repeatability, resolution and hysteresis.
"Transducer Action" is available free on request from RDP Electronics. Request a free brochure from RDP Electronics ...
