Smart Force Sensors: Enhanced Accuracy, Higher Reliability and New Applications in Test and Production

The pressure for being "smart" is rising. Take advantage of HBK's FREE online training and learn more about smart force sensor technology and how it can help your machine or process to become even smarter.

State-of-the-art load cells digitize force signals, resulting in practical advantages.

Beyond significantly improved interference resistance, the technology can perform standard functions such as peak value detection or averaging. Due to the fixed connection between sensor and electronics, additional requirements can be met - for instance, the digital force transducer for compressive and tensile force can issue warnings if the environmental conditions or force progression could damage the sensor, before any damage occurs. This comes along with cost advantages.
