Torsional stiffness measurement systems from RDP Electronics

Systems may require tens, even hundreds, of transducers during development and testing of road vehicles, or aircraft wings for example, to examine the effects of distortion. Such issues as road handling, door frame alignment and windscreen fit can all be examined. Data from the transducers is relayed to an RDP Modular 600 system. The Modular 600 is a fully featured microprocessor instrumentation system providing complete flexibility and expandability, accepting inputs from up to 164 channels and is available in either free standing or rack form. It can be tailored to measure most engineering parameters including torsion and data can be output in spreadsheet format for detailed examination and analysis.
