DIC Q-400, optical measuring device
The Digital 3D Image Correlation System Q-400 is an optical measuring device for true full-field, non-contact, three-dimensional measurement of shape, displacements and strains on components and structures made from almost any material.
The Q-400 system is used for determination of three-dimensional material properties in tensile, torsion, bending or combined tests. In addition, deformation and strain analysis can be applied to fatigue tests, fracture mechanics, FEA validation, and much more.
MAIN ADVANTAGES
- non-contact measuring method
- display of results in real time
- measurement of the displacement and deformation of a surface, not a point
- compensation of the object movement relative to the measuring system during the control process
- high sensitivity to the movements (in fractions of a micron)
- stitching the measurement results not into a set of images, but into a unified three-dimensional picture
- quick and simple automated calibration procedure
- open data format of the measuring results
