Optical Fiber enables stress analysis over large areas.
2013-05-02 14:28:17| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
With All Grating Fiber, sensors can be positioned adjacent to one another, making it possible to monitor changes throughout structure and see how mechanical influences at one point can affect another. DTG-LBL-1550-AGF is low bendloss fiber with densely spaced Draw Tower Gratings over full length, breaking strength of >5% strain, and operating temperature of -180 to +200°C. Used with OFDR system, fiber enables precise measurements with spatial resolution down to a few millimeters. This story is related to the following:Optical Fibers
