Strain transducers and press-fit sensors are essential tools for reliable measurements in force measurement technology. They enable the precise recording of deformations and forces in various materials and assemblies. – Request a project
Strain transducers are bolted to steel structures such as machine frames or steel beams in order to record strains, compressions or shear stresses. These sensors are precisely positioned to provide accurate measurement data. Thanks to modern technology, the measured values can be easily integrated into various monitoring systems, enabling continuous monitoring of loads.
Press-fit sensors are inserted into special holes to measure the stresses in the component. Together with the component, the sensors are adjusted so that the zero point and sensitivity are correct. In addition to the condition without load, only one other defined load condition is required. Thanks to the built-in amplifier, the sensors supply either 0 to 10 V or 4 to 20 mA directly at the output.
Strain transducers and press-fit sensors can be a cost-effective alternative for measuring large forces. They measure in the “force shunt”. This refers to the indirect transmission of forces in a mechanical system via additional components or connections that influence the force distribution.
Do you need an strain transducer or press-fit sensor adapted to your requirements? No problem! Whether shape or design, material or ports, analog or digital Output signals – our team will develop for you or together with you exactly the strain transducer or press-fit sensor you need for your project. This is because it has decades of experience and a great deal of expertise in the development of force measurement technology and the appropriate tools and machines to produce the prototypes you need
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!
