Strain gauge load cells for crash test dummies, lower neck, HIII-50th, HIII-95th / M557A6

High-accuracy strain gauge load cells for robust force measurement in lower neck applications, optimized for severe crash loads and repeatable dummy testing.

M557A6

High-accuracy strain gauge load cells for robust force measurement in lower neck applications, optimized for severe crash loads and repeatable dummy testing.
Main features / advantages
  • Designed for Hybrid III male dummies
  • Digital (DTI) or analog output configuration
  • Low nonlinearity and hysteresis for repeatable force measurement
  • Drop-in fit for lower neck installation in the dummy
  • SAE J211/1 polarity for consistent and comparable data
  • Optional UPS memory module for fast setup
The six-axial lower neck load cell Type M557A6 is designed to measure forces and moments acting in the lower neck of Hybrid III 50th percentile male and 95th percentile male crash test dummies. Integrated directly at the lower neck location, it provides comprehensive multi-axis load data for evaluating cervical spine injury mechanisms in frontal and oblique crash scenarios.
