Strain Gauges
overall review score: 4.2
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
score is between 0 and 5
Strain gauges are devices used to measure the amount of strain (deformation) on an object subjected to stress. They work based on the principle that the resistance of a conductor changes when it is stretched or compressed.
Key Features
- Measures strain in objects
- Works based on resistance change in conductors
- Used in various industries for structural monitoring and testing
Pros
- Highly sensitive and accurate measurements
- Versatile applications in different industries
- Helps in preventive maintenance by detecting stress levels in structures
Cons
- Requires calibration for accurate results
- Complex installation process in some cases
- Costly compared to some other sensing technologies
