Load Cell - Snow Shoe Testing
How it Works
  1. In this application, a test stand is used to mimic the movements made during walking. Such tests are very common in commercial product testing to verify product integrity or quality.
  2. By utilizing a simulation test module, these snow shoes will undergo endurance and durability tests.
  3. To capture the data results from the aforementioned tests, two load buttons (LLB Series) are placed at the bottom of the foot simulator to measure the force of the heel and toe while in motion.
  4. Each load cell is paired to a FUTEK USB Solution, allowing the operator to stream the data directly onto his/her PC.
  5. Using FUTEK's SENSIT™ Test and Measurement Software, the operator then can collect, log, graph, and analyze the results.
