Fiber Optic Flex Circuit (FOFC)
MDC Solution
MMC Solution
~1.2pm/με | -40°C~85°C | FC/APC
Passive operation and immune to electromagnetic interference
Excellent linearity
High repeatability
Integrated temperature compensation
Capable of monitoring bolt loosening and fatigue
The Fiber Optic Smart Bolt is an intelligent structural component that utilizes Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) technology to measure internal strain through spectral variations. It enables real-time monitoring of bolt preload, deformation, loosening, fatigue, and other key parameters.
