Mechanical properties evaluation
Illustration of the equipment
Two or three cameras can be used to analyze the 3D-deformation of the grids printed on the sample.
Example of testing (tensile test)
Dots with a diameter of 0.5 mm are printed with a pitch of 1 mm on specimens. This strain measurement system can be applied to a wide range of testing methods for automotive steels.
Example of strain measurement
The local strain distribution in a deforming sample can be continuously observed.
It is important for the forming simulation and crash simulation to accurately measure material deformation behaviors. JFE Steel developed the strain measurement system by using multi-cameras that can analyze the local strain distribution in the deforming materials.
