چکیده

Additive manufacturing technologies allow the fabrication of smart objects, which are made up a dielectric part and an embedded sensor able to give real-time feedback final user. This research presents characterization low-cost 3D-printed strain sensor, fabricated using material extrusion (MeX) technology by conductive composed polylactic acid (PLA)-based matrix doped with carbon black nanotubes (CNT), thus making plastic conductive. A suitable measurement set-up was developed perform automatic tests high repeatability industrial robot define either displacement or force profiles. The correlation between applied stimulus variation electrical resistance evaluated, approach compensate for effect temperature. Results show that temperature hysteresis affect repeatability; nevertheless, accurately detects impulse forces ranging from 10 g 50 g. showed linearity exhibited sensitivity 0.077 Ω g−1 12.54 mm−1 in range 114 0.7 mm, respectively, them promising due their low cost, ease fabrication, possible integration into more complex devices single-step cycle.

Novel and Low-cost Temperature Compensation Technique for Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors

− This paper proposes a low-cost technique to compensate for the temperature dependence of piezoresistive pressure sensors configured in a Wheatstone bridge. The sensor is treated as a resistive circuit and three equivalent resistances are measured by setting appropriately the bridge terminals. One of these equivalent resistances depends on temperature but not on pressure and, hence, it can be ...
