Dynamic Strain Data Logger with Multi-Channel Support
Dynamic strain measurements demand hardware that keeps up with rapid signal changes. Missing a spike can skew an entire test. Kingmach's dynamic strain data logger is built for exactly that: capturing fast transients across multiple channels without timing drift. It works with a range of strain gauges—quarter, half, full bridge—and handles the signal conditioning on board. You configure it once, then leave it to log for hours or days, pulling data later over USB or Ethernet. Field engineers appreciate the straightforward setup and the way it flags bad channels immediately. The logger stores raw time-series data, no compression tricks that lose high-frequency detail. When you open the file, you see exactly what the sensor saw. That matters when you're correlating strain peaks with other events. Rather than chasing specs from a catalog, you talk with Kingmach about your actual wiring layout and sensor types. They'll match the logger terminal configuration and sampling rate to your needs, and if your project evolves, they can adjust it. It's a practical tool, not a black box.
Technical Detail
Kingmach builds dynamic strain data loggers for engineers who need reliable channel counts and data clarity without paying for lab-grade extremes. Each unit comes with simultaneous sampling across all inputs, typically at rates from 1 Hz to several kHz—enough for most civil and mechanical monitoring jobs. The analog front end includes built-in bridge completion and programmable excitation, so you can mix 120 Ω and 350 Ω gauges on the same unit without external modules. Calibration is stored in non-volatile memory, and the zero-drift over temperature is tight enough for outdoor work. Signal bandwidth filtering is selectable per channel, giving you control over anti-aliasing. Data streams to internal flash, removable SD cards, or direct to a PC via Ethernet for long-term monitoring. Kingmach's logger speaks standard protocols—Modbus TCP, CAN, analog output—making integration with existing SCADA or PLC setups straightforward. Software comes with the unit: a data viewer for quick checks and a more detailed package for post-processing, including rosette calculations and rainflow counting. Because Kingmach manufactures in-house, you're not stuck with a fixed configuration. If your test setup calls for 16 channels instead of 8, or needs IEPE inputs alongside strain, they rework the chassis. Custom cable lengths and connector types are normal requests. Global distribution means you can get units calibrated to local standards and supported by local engineers. For projects that run into trouble, their support team remotes in or talks you through diagnostics. It's a logger that earns its keep on bridge tests, crane load monitoring, and fatigue analysis rigs.

All channels are sampled at the same instant, with a channel-to-channel skew less than one sample period, so you don't have to compensate for phase lag in post-processing.
The high signal-to-noise front end and software-based cable compensation let you run several hundred meters of shielded twisted pair without grinding noise floors down.
Standard exports include CSV, ASCII, and MATLAB. For larger datasets, it can write directly to TDMS or HDF5 for use in analysis tools like DIAdem or Python scripts.
There are no spinning drives or moving parts. Ruggedized terminal blocks and board stiffening have proven data retention at 5 g random vibration during internal tests, so it holds up on machinery.
Yes. Kingmach builds analog boards to order—strain, thermocouple, voltage, IEPE—all in one chassis, with a channel count that fits your test article.
