Applications

STRUCTURE MONITORING

The Sensor can be used to monitor stress variations in steel structures such as bridges, towers, industrial frames, and support beams. Its contactless sensing principle enables long-term monitoring without modifying the structure or interrupting operation. Continuous monitoring helps detect abnormal loading conditions before mechanical failure occurs.

STATIC & DYNAMIC LOAD MEASUREMENT

Suitable for monitoring both constant loads and rapidly changing stress conditions, including vibration, cyclic loading, and transient mechanical events. This is supported by the sensor's high sampling rate of 40kSps and real-time Ethernet streaming capability.

WEIGHING APPLICATIONS

The sensor can be used in weighing applications by monitoring stress variations generated in steel structures under load. This Sensor Suits heavy vehicles in motion applications like railway systems where the sensor can detect the stress signatures produced by passing train axles to estimate axle load, total train weight and Train Speed in real time.

RESEARCH & TECHNOLOGY EVALUATION

The evaluation kit is ideal for universities, laboratories, and R&D departments working on magnetic sensing, stress analysis, predictive maintenance, or non-contact measurement technologies. Open-source PC software allows rapid experimentation and system customization.
