Strain gauge load cells for crash test dummies, lower neck, THOR-50M / M55696

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

M55696

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 THOR 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 M55696 is designed to measure forces and moments acting in the lower neck of the THOR-M crash test dummy. Integrated directly at the designated lower neck location, it provides comprehensive multi-axis load data for assessing cervical spine loading and injury mechanisms in advanced frontal and oblique crash testing.
