Micro-Measurements
Micro-Measurements is the world's
premier source for strain gages, strain gage instrumentation, and photoelastic
equipment for high-precision strain measurement. These products are
used in the practice of experimental stress analysis and as the sensing
elements for a wide variety of transducers.
Andruss-Peskin Corporation represents
Micro-Measurements in New England and Upstate New York.
Micro-Measurements consists of the
following product groups:
| Micro-Measurements: Leading supplier of electrical resistance
strain gages, strain gage accessories, and special resistive sensors. |
| Instruments: Specialists in the development and manufacture
of static and dynamic strain gage instrumentation. |
| Photolastic: Experts in the field of photoelasticity,
offering a wide range of equipment and materials for using this
technique. |
| Education: Innovators of technical teaching aids for schools
to broaden the knowledge of teachers, engineers, and technicians
in the use of strain gages and photoelasticity for experimental
stress analysis. |
Micro-Measurements has an excellent Web site with information
on the company, its products, and technical support information. We
invite you to visit the Micro-Measurements's

Precision Strain Gages
The Precision Strain Gage Catalog lists a wide range of precision
metal-foil strain gages and special purpose sensors manufactured
by Micro-Measurements. The catalog describes the types of gages
available, the steps in selecting a gage, and the designation system
used. Information on strain gage self-temperature compensation,
gage resistance, gage factor, transverse sensitivity, strain gage
adhesives, and gage dimensions is provided.

Strain Gage Accessories
This catalog describes the wide range of accessories used for installation
of electrical resistance strain gages. These include surface cleaning
supplies, adhesives, installation tools, bondable terminals, soldering
supplies, wire and cable, protective coatings and precision shunt
and bridge completion resistors and networks. Complete application
kits are describes as well as instrumentation used to test gage
installations.

PhotoStress® Instrumentation
Micro-Measurements supplies a broad range of products for photoelastic
testing. Photoelasticity is a full-field technique used in stress
analysis testing. The technology embraces three broad categories:
- PhotoStress® or photoelastic coating.
- Two-dimensional model analysis
- Three-dimensional model analysis
The literature describes these techniques and the materials and
instrumentation used in these methods of stress analysis.

Measurement Group Technical Training Programs
Micro-Measurements offers a series of comprehensive, coordinated
instructional programs in the use of strain gage technology and
photoelasticity in experimental stress analysis. This training,
provided through workshops and short courses, is of maximum benefit
to those new in these techniques.
Technical training programs are held at the Micro-Measurements
headquarters near Raleigh, North Carolina and periodically at other
locations around the world. An up-to-date
listing giving dates and locations of the technical seminars,
workshops, and short courses is available on the Micro-Measurements
Web site. |
