Series LF is the first choice for strain measurements of printed circuit boards or other small components with limited space.
With the LF miniature strain gauges we offer you suitable strain gauges for measurements on small components like printed circuit boards or other applications with limited space available.
No soldering on the strain gauge required
Save time and start straight away!
The high-quality, reliable, and flexible strain gauges for experimental stress analysis can be combined perfectly with HBK's DAQ amplifier QuantumX and catman DAQ software for a complete measuring and testing solution. From the sensor to the software: simply "plug and measure".
