Description: The importance of clamp load in threaded fastener assembly torque tension technology
Speaker: Dave Miller Sponsor: PCB Piezotronics, Inc.
20 years experience in the field of fastener technology. Base in
conducting seminars on torque and fastener technology.
Description: More companies need to cut testing time and increase flexibility of testing. By using on-board controls,
sophisticated sequencing allows for repetitive testing.
Speaker: Dave Stuart Sponsor: DytecEast
Description: Piezoelectric sensors are used in a variety of dynamic testing applications, including those found in aerospace,
automotive, industrial and laboratory environments. The difference between dynamic and static measurements
is explained and examples of each are presented. Reasons for using piezoelectric sensors compared to other
types include the size, weight, measurement range, temperature range, and frequency ranges available. Typical
piezoelectric element designs are reviewed. Two common types of piezoelectric sensors are in use today -
voltage mode and charge mode. Voltage mode sensors utilize built-in or integral electronics (IEPE). Advantages
and disadvantages and common setups of both IEPE and charge mode sensors are discussed. Also considered
are various sensor mounting options and the resulting effect on frequency response, transducer selection criteria,
and recommended general care and handling of piezoelectric devices.
and maximizing the value received from your capital and time investments. Learn how to maximize the load’s
value by gaining a fundamental understanding of electronic load operation, its strengths and weaknesses
o Static Test
o Dynamic Test (pulse, Sine, Arbitrary)
to achieve highest value ($/Watt and best use of your time)
