Push Your Motorsports Team to the Limit with ITMās Rod End Load Cell Expertise
in Automotive, Blog Posts, Engineering Services Posts/by Mark YeagerTurn our strain and torque load cell experts loose to gain performance on your test track
At ITM, your race carās exact load and downforce can be precisely measured using rod end load cell and torque load cell technology.Ā
Putting our strain gauging expertise to work allows race teams from NASCAR, Formula 1, IndyCar and others to modify designs, decrease stress and gain a competitive advantage.

A strain gauge, or load cell, is an instrument that is commonly affixed to the vehicleās various components ā including the rod end, suspension pushrods, gear lever, steering column, driveshaft, pedals and more. These instruments can then measure the wheel load, for example, as a car hugs a tight turn in real time. The in-vehicle data logger picks up every load change caused by high-speed acceleration, breaking and maneuvering.Ā
Ultimately, load cells and strain gauges are an irreplaceable tool for anyone looking to push the limits and fully understand racecar performance.Ā
Our engineers have installed load cells and strain gauges on structures and machinery around the globe for decades. We take pride in perfecting the art of strain gauge application, logging, measurement and analysis ā whether on vehicles, medical devices or rocket components.Ā
We are also confident in our custom iTestSystem software, which allows us to stream and analyze load cells, strain signals and do real world fatigue data acquisition. Contact our strain lab and technicians to build a custom real time strain monitoring system or to design, build, calibrate and test strain-based load cells.Ā

ITM Engineers Strain Gauge in Shadow of Artemis I Rocket Launch

ļ»æITM strain gauge team witnesses powerful forces during two-week trip to Cape Canaveral
A group of engineers and aerospace engineering technicians from Integrated Test & Measurement just returned after an unforgettable experience in Cape Canaveral.
ITMās team was there to assist an aerospace engineering partner with on-site strain gauging. The challenge was to assist in validating rocket components ahead of an upcoming launch, which required completing a massive strain gauge instrumentation project.

The teamās work was delayed due to Hurricane Nicole, so they waited out the storm just blocks from the beach, said Ryan āRJā Matthews, ITM engineer. As powerful as it was seeing a storm with wind speeds exceeding 130 mph, the hurricane was still a distant second in the most memorable department to their up-close view of NASAās Artemis I mission rocket launch.
Matthews said the team took a break from strain gauging a rocket booster, an intense project that required a significant amount of cable routing, to observe the launch from just a few miles away.
To accommodate their partner, ITMās crew worked eight 12-hour shifts from 5 p.m. to 5 a.m., so perfect timing to watch NASA take a first step toward blazing a path back to the Moon in the early hours of Nov. 16.
About 45 minutes after the anticipated launch time, fireball from the SLS Rocket lit up the night sky.
āIt was incredible,ā said Matthews, who witnessed the launch from a balcony. āIt was super bright ā kind of like a 1-minute sunrise. About 40 seconds later, it started rattling the building.ā

Q&A with ITM Co-opĀ Marlo Bryant
in Blog Posts/by Mark Yeagerļ»æļ»æļ»æļ»æļ»æ
UC mechanical engineering student loved the variety at ITMĀ
Marlo Bryant is in her fifth year as a mechanical engineering student at the University of Cincinnati College of Engineering and Applied Science. She spent this summer as a co-op at ITM, helping the firm with interesting projects around the country. We caught up with Marlo during her last week, and here are some of her reflections.Ā
Q: What led you to ITM?Ā Ā
A: I was looking for a smaller company for my last co-op rotation because I had worked at a huge conglomerate and also a larger company. I wanted to really utilize the co-op program to get a feel for different industries and different size companies. Iām also interested in data analysis kind of work, so that’s initially why ITM sounded so interesting.
Q: Was there anything about your experience that will influence your future?Ā
A: Yeah. I’ve been kind of struggling with what I want to do with an engineering degree once I graduate. But this co-op has definitely helped me narrow down that I’m
more interested and inclined toward test engineering as opposed to manufacturing or design. So, I think it has been really beneficial.Ā Ā
Q: What is it about testing that’s intriguing to you?Ā
A: I like being able to see a project go from start to finish. Figure out what you are looking for, complete it and go through the results. You get a larger role in seeing the whole operation and having more responsibility instead of just having tunnel vision on one small role.Ā
Q: Any particular experience that stands out from your co-op?Ā
A: Going down and working on rockets and being able to go inside rockets and seeing the whole manufacturing center is super cool. And being trusted to work on what ITM is doing there is pretty awesome.Ā
Q: What might you say to a classmate considering a co-op at ITM?
A: From talking to my peers, a lot of co-ops that they’ve been on are just sitting at their desk or doing the same kind of boring thing. A lot of companies just want their engineers to do the work and only have their co-ops there as support. But at ITM you get to have a big role in projects.
