This tension and
compression sensor with his compact
construction is designed for heavy-duty
use in rough environments as well as for
laboratory and test purposes. The housing
and the protective covers is made of
stainless steel. The protective cover for
lower ranges is made of aluminium. The
sensor has a low overall height and a
central lead-in/lead-out of the load.
Therefore the sensor can be retrofitted
easy into existing structures. The sensor
is an allround instrument for static and
dynamic measurement.
Some areas of applications:
|
Press-in actions |
|
Draw-pull forces |
|
Spring-power
measurements |
|
Measurement of cutting
forces |
|
Drill feed forces |
|
Force measurements on
mouting devices |
|
Weighting technics |
|
| Description |
 |
The force links
operate by the approved strain-gauge
method. The measuring unit contains an
applied strain gauge full bridge which
converts the affecting energy in an
electrical signal. A metric threat is cut
in the middle axis through which the
measurement force is fed either by means
of a load button or an
application-related screw part. To
realize best results, load cell must be
mounted on a plan flat surface.
Lateral forces within an angular range of
± 2.5 to the horizontal can be
neclected. In case of greater lateral
forces, constructive methods must be
taken to lead the lateral forces away
from the sensor (e.g. by levers hold from
roller bearings, movable bearings).The
use of the integral screwholes gurantees
a simple mounting possibility for the
sensor.
