The dimensioning of components, the exact determination of material properties, the usage of new materials and the improvement of FE calculation models require better understanding of the material and component behaviour.

The deformation measuring system ARAMIS records an object under load using CCD cameras. For each stage of load, the 3D coordinates of the object surface are calculated on the basis of digital image processing delivering also the 3D displacement and the strain.

ARAMIS is a non-contact measuring system, which is well suited for measuring three-dimensional deformation and strain distributions of real components under static or dynamic load.

Applications:

Material testing
Strength assessment
Component dimensioning
Examination of non-linear behaviour
Characterization of creep and aging processes
Determination of Forming Limit Curves (FLC)
