Tow test force measurement

Explore the project


The Ocean Cleanup is an ambitious initiative to remove the trillions pieces of plastic that litter our oceans. We supplied a standalone force monitoring system existing of a load shackle that measures the forces that occur between the towing vessel and the cleanup system and a Graphtec Data logger that collected and visualized real time data on the data logger screen. Later on, the collected data was transferred to a PC via USB interface for further analysis.
