WHY 3D OPTICAL EXTENSOMETER?
- Prevention of measurement distortion due to out-of-plane displacement, which is not prevented by the test rig sufficiently
- Accurate measurement and determination of Poisson's ratio of thin samples susceptible to tilting (composites, metal sheets, fabrics)
- Control of 3D movement of measured samples and adjacent parts (sample clamping system, test rig frame, etc.)
- Identification of sample cracking, bending or buckling
- Identification of non-symmetric thermal expansion deformations
- Identification and validation of actual sample deformations in 3D
- Test rig sample loading issues, test rig set-up, test rig adjustment
