Strain gauges (sometimes referred to as strain sensors) are sensors whose resistance varies with the applied force. They can convert physical quantities such as force, pressure, tension, and weight into changes in resistance, thereby enabling the measurement of these physical quantities. As one of the most crucial sensors in electrical measurement technology, strain gauges are primarily used for measuring mechanical quantities.
HAIBOSENSOR is a factory specializing in the production of strain gauges. We have professional engineers who can provide customized services such as helping you with model selection, glue selection, and strain – gauge bonding methods, enabling your products to achieve intelligent upgrading in weighing.
Strain gauges are arranged in various orientations based on the kind of force to be measured. Specific configurations of strain gauges are used to measure bending strain, shear strain, axial strain, torque, and pressure respectively.
Linear strain gauges feature a single measuring grid and are designed to detect strain in only one direction, making them suitable when analysis in a single axis is required.
Double linear strain gauges consist of two parallel measuring grids. These strain gauges are commonly used in load cells and are ideal for applications such as measuring strain on bending beams, testing ship hulls and structural parts, vehicle testing, construction, railway systems, and aerospace engineering.
Shear strain gauges, often shaped like a “V,” contain two measuring grids positioned at a 90° angle relative to each other. These gauges are typically used for measuring strain on torsion bars and for determining shear stresses found in shear beams, particularly in the region of neutral fibers.
Right-angle strain gauges, also known as T-rosettes, have two measuring grids oriented at a 90° angle apart. This type is commonly used for evaluating biaxial stress states where the principal directions are known, as well as for strain measurements on tension and compression bars.
Half-bridge strain gauges are specifically designed for producing high-precision load cells based on the bending beam principle. They are particularly useful in situations where space constraints limit the length of the beam.
Full-bridge strain gauges incorporate four measuring grids, each spaced 90° apart. These gauges are widely used for strain measurements on tension and compression bars and for determining shear stresses in shear beams.
Rosette strain gauges consist of three measuring grids positioned at angles of either 0°/45°/90° or 0°/60°/120°. These strain gauges are ideal for analyzing biaxial stress states when the principal directions are not known in advance.
