Description

The Veshay Akemond TSK Series PCB Strain Measurement System is a high-precision diagnostic tool engineered to monitor mechanical stress on printed circuit boards (PCBs) during manufacturing, testing, and operation. Designed to prevent common structural failures like pad lifting, solder joint cracking, and trace damage, this system is vital for ensuring long-term reliability and compliance with IPC-JEDEC 9704 standards.

Capable of supporting multiple input channels and strain gauge configurations (120Ω and 350Ω), the TSK Series offers scalable solutions from 8 to 32 channels. It features a 24-bit analog-to-digital converter and a 1/4 bridge Wheatstone circuit to deliver accurate, high-resolution measurements. The system supports high-frequency sampling up to 10 kHz per channel, enabling precise tracking of dynamic strain behavior.

The integrated software suite enhances usability with real-time data visualization, advanced analytical tools such as principal strain and strain rate analysis, and automated report generation. Compact, lightweight, and USB-compatible, the TSK Series is optimized for ease of use and field portability. With a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 70°C, it’s an ideal fit for demanding testing environments.
