Some systems cannot be measured directly in their real operating environment. By combining microrobotics, small-scale force measurement, and DIC, structural deformation can be characterized first and later used as a calibrated mechanical readout in the final application.
Ship faster. Waste less. Learn more. Every composites project pays for learning. The only question is whether you pay early and cheaply, or late and expensively. When interface performance is validated only after laminate scale-up, teams burn weeks on sample manufacturing, tie up people and equipment, and sometimes discover critical issues when schedules are already […]
Peel testing is one of the most widely used methods for assessing adhesive strength, especially in tapes, films, and flexible materials. However, most test machines and standards are designed for large-format specimens and overlook the fine details that define performance in smaller applications. FIBROPeel was developed to close that gap. It enables sensitive, repeatable testing […]
A Milestone in International Technology Delivery Earlier this year, we reached an exciting milestone as a technology company: for the first time, we delivered one of our precision measurement systems to a client across the Atlantic. The customer – a global industry leader in advanced materials – became the first to receive this technology outside […]
Let's say you have a small object and would like to know more about its shape than what a 2D image can tell you. Suitable methods for 3D imaging such samples are, e.g., microCT, nanoCT, laser profilometer, MRI, and OPT. Most of these techniques require expensive devices and might only be suitable for some sample […]
If you were interested in the shear properties of a composite structure, you would measure them conventionally on a laminate scale. Applicable tests would be e.g., short beam shear, v-notch shear or ±45° tension shear tests. Each of these tests requires a unique sample and usually additional sensors e.g., strain gauges or digital image correlation […]
Fibrobotics is honored to be one of the 6 companies that were admitted into the European Space Agency - ESA - Business Incubator program this summer. These startups will receive funding from ESA-BIC and Business Finland, and will receive support from ESA-BIC and Aalto Startup Center.
In this paper, a monolithic compliant based structure with an integrated Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor is developed and analysed.
