Force Transducer
The piezoelectric force transducer is designed to measure dynamic and impact forces. It is pre-loaded to precisely 1 000 N, allowing compressive force measurements of up to 1 000 N and tensile force measurements of up to 250 N. The transducer is mounted on the test structure so that the force to be measured is transmitted through the transducer. When used with an exciter, the transducer signal can be used to measure and control the applied force. The frequency response function of the test structure can be measured by using a dual-channel analyzer. The force transducer is used to measure the input force and an accelerometer (or laser velocity transducer) is used to measure the response of the structure.
