Heavy Machinery

Companies like CAT, John Deere, Volvo and Komatsu, to name a few, use rugged Dewesoft DAQ systems to test their large trucks, earth-moving equipment, and heavy machinery of all types. Portable instruments with wide temperature operating ranges and high shock and vibration specifications are essential in these applications. Our waterproof models can be used in a wide range of challenging environments, surviving and thriving where regular laboratory instruments simply can’t go. You can measure strain, pressure, shock, vibration, temperature, voltage, current … and even synchronize one or more video feeds with the physical measurements, providing valuable visual context to your data.
