Abstract
A magnetic measurement target is configured to be positioned inside a vehicle axle and to cooperate with at least two magnetic movement sensors to measure deformation of the axle. The magnetic measurement target includes a body with a fastener end for fastening to one end of the axle and a main portion. The main portion includes a slot formed in an axial direction to separate two longitudinal portions of the body. Each longitudinal portion of the body presents a target surface for which movement can be measured by a magnetic movement sensor.
