WGA-910A Instrumentation Amplifier

This is an instrumentation amplifier that monitors pressure changes during press-fitting and pressing via waveforms, allowing visual confirmation of changes in physical quantities such as load and pressure, which are difficult to grasp with numbers alone. It also supports a variety of hold functions, including inflection point (press-fit force) and max/min value hold, enabling advanced control. Channels: 1 Sampling speed: 4000 times/sec.

Description

Features

  • Monitor waveforms and check numbers easily using the touch panel
  • Variety of hold functions
  • Waveform comparison function
  • SD card compatible

Load Management by Comparing Waveforms

WGA-910A can be used to display waveforms and numerical data for loads on manufacturing lines, measured by load cells. Advanced load management can also be performed by comparing upper/lower limit set waveforms with actual measured waveforms.
