This low-cost tension/compression load cell is a particularly robust component that can be easily installed in a rod assembly, between two ropes or chains for force measurement. The standard version with internal thread can accommodate any adapter parts in the axis of symmetry, such as joint eyelets, or can be quickly and easily screwed into a threaded hole to be produced using the optionally available external threaded adapters.

The connection cable, which is led out radially via a mini PG gland, is highly flexible and designed for a large number of flexible movements. All parts are welded together in order to maximise the stability of such a sensor so that it can be used not only for laboratory but also for industrial applications.

The measuring element is a diaphragm positioned rectangular to the sensor axis, on the inside of which a full bridge of strain gauges is applied, which expects a stable excitation voltage and delivers a nominal sensitivity of approx. 1 mV/V.

burster TEDS with an electronic sensor data sheet or standardisation of the output signal in the sensor connection cable can be offered as an option.

Handling robots fit pre-assembled internal door trims into the plain body coming from the paint shop. These units don’t just consist of the visible shell, but also contain parts such as locks, window winders, controls and, for rear-door trim, also windscreen wiper motor and lighting. The load cells monitor the force with which the individual snap-fit pegs are inserted into the sheet metal, and the actual snap-fit event. Above every position of a snapfit peg, inside the interchangeable robot tool is a load cell with the correct measuring range, ensuring complete data is obtained on the fastening quality at each of the 16 fixing points. The load cell is fitted with a cable suitable for robot use, being designed to withstand numerous movements and friction in the drag chain.
