MBA500
How it Works
- 1. Pilots rely heavily on the control column (yoke) to guide the pitch and roll of a plane. By rotating the yoke, a pilot maneuvers on the roll axis. By propelling the yoke forward and backward, that pilot can adjust the elevation and pitch axis.
- 2. To ensure that the control column is operating properly, quality assurance engineers can install FUTEK's MBA500 Torque and Thrust Biaxial Sensor into the yoke.
- 3. The MBA500 performs measurements in both the Mz (the roll) and Fz (the pitch) directions.
- 4. These torque and thrust measurements can be read upon a digital display, such as FUTEK's IPM650 Panel Mount Display or IHH500 Hand Held Display, or streamed to a PC utilizing FUTEK's USB Solutions.
- 5. Once streamed to a PC, that data can then be monitored by FUTEK's SENSITâ„¢ Test and Measurement Software.
