Syringe Test Stand

How it Works

Mounted to a mechanical lever, one of FUTEK's LSB200 Jr. Miniature S-Beam Load Cells will measure the force applied to the syringe's pump as it dispenses fluid.
The second LSB200 will monitor the load of fluid emitted from the syringe.
These two measurements can be streamed and collected through FUTEK's USB Solutions.
Executing SENSIT™ Test and Measurement Software alongside these USB Solutions allows the inspector to data log these results on two different channels.
From here, the quality inspector may compare each channel of results to effectively gauge the force of exertion verses the fluid dispensed.
