    Guess: they're troubleshooting a noise or coupling problem between the braided wiring when the product is vibrating?

    I'm unsure of the name of the metal part. It looks like a link in a chain. Please add it to the tags if you know it. You must have a user name to add tags.

    The numbers, 74-75-77, correspond to strain gages attached to the metal. The gage circuit is buried under specification-grade epoxy so the gage and the wire stays put under the epoxy blanket.

    Sometimes specification-grade nail polish like paint or silicon rubber is used to protect wiring. Please comment if you think this is silicon rubber. Medical grade Silastic may also be used. Hardware store silicon rubber usually has acids that can damage the strain gage wiring. That's why it smells like vinegar when curing.
