In VisLink, optical fibre strain and temperature sensors are attached to thin stainless steel plates. Spot welding the sensor directly to a steel structure ensures long-term, creep-free strain transfer without inducing bondline degradation. This robust sensor is suitable for challenging environments including civil structures, ship hulls, offshore structures, pipelines, nuclear power plants, bridges and dams.
