RADIAL SHEAR BEAMS USED AS HIGH PRECISION TRANSFERE TRANSDUCERS

Thomas Kleckers

Abstract

Radial shear type transducers are frequently used in the field of experimental mechanics and test rigs as their spring body design allows a high dynamic bandwidth as well as best overload capability. But the design of the spring bodies as well as the used strain gauges allows the use of these transducers as reference transducers in the field of calibration.
