This kind of sensors can be a low cost solution e.g. for measuring big forces. They measure forces in “mechanical bypass”. This method detects stress conditions in the construction element, which are caused by the applied load. Strain transducers are screwed on the steel construction (machine frames, beams) in the appropriate area in order to measure strain, compression or transverse strain. Press-In sensors detect stress conditions as well. In contrast they will be pressed in holes, which are specially drilled for this reason.In conjunction with the construction element sensors are calibrated. In order to adjust zero point and span merely an unloaded and a loaded situation (with defined load) has to be realised.Thanks to integrated amplifiers you find 0…10 V or 4…20 mA at the output directly.
Since early 2025, Primosensor has been offering its own series of 6-axis force and torque sensors — with an approach that clearly sets us apart from other suppliers. On the other hand, Primosensor has developed a process in recent years with which multi-component sensors can be automatically calibrated using robots – a globally unique approach!
