RDP introduces LVDTs and magnetostrictive devices for testing the impact of helmets
RDP Electronics
MTS Temposonics transducers
RDP Electronics is offering linear variable displacement transducers (LVDTs) and magnetostrictive devices suitable for testing the impact of safety products such as crash helmets.
According to the company, an impact test determines the energy absorbed in fracturing a test piece at high velocity and this usually involves a large range of displacement.
MTS Temposonics transducers — available from RDP — are recommended for impact testing applications because of their large measurement range.
Key benefits
- Based on the magnetostrictive principle, displacement sensors are said to be very accurate and reliable.
- According to the company, they also offer absolute position measurement and can be easily installed.
