Strain Gauge Clamping Jig

PRESSING JIG - PRESSEE PM-19

When adhering a strain gauge to a specimen, it is necessary to press the strain gauge until the adhesive hardens. PRESSEE not only applies pressure (PRESS) on the strain gauge, but is also a pressing jig allowing a strain gauge to be checked visually (SEE) from the clear pressing portion. Using PRESSEE saves time in having to keep pressing with the fingers, and a constant pressure on a strain gauge allows stable adhesion quality. The position of the strain gauge, flow of the adhesive, and other aspects can also be checked visually while pressure is applied.

PRESSEE
Features
  • Magnetic method stabilizes the pressing force and adhesion quality
  • As the pressing part is clear, you can check the bonding status with your eyes
  • Spring mechanism enables easy attachment and removal with weak force
  • Work efficiency is improved because other work can be carried out during pressing

STRAIN GAUGE CLAMP - GAUGE MATE GMA-S / GMR-S

When adhering a strain gauge, it is necessary to press the gauge until the adhesive hardens. Gauge Mate is a jig that uses a coil spring and a permanent magnet to maintain application of pressure. Use with room-temperature-hardening adhesive.
