Superior measurement performance

Successful product performance evaluation requires a comprehensive view of what is happening when your prototype is subject to extreme loading. Therefore during the test, a wide range of sensors needs to be measured and synchronized, including strain gages, accelerometers, displacement sensors, force cells, thermocouples, pressure transducers, Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) location and more. Frequently, engineers also want to consider additional information, like data coming from a digital bus or video images. But space is limited to take several devices on board for all these diverse testing needs.

All-in one solution
With Simcenter SCADAS RS, you can have all these capabilities in one box. With powerful on-board universal signal conditioning for all these physical aspects, measurements are captured with the highest precision and lowest noise and drift over the entire operating temperature range. Thanks to a high signal-to-noise ratio and large dynamic range, Simcenter SCADAS RS can turn any signal into quality data.
