Available in 14 rated load ranges:
0 - 5N to 0 - 1000N
The dual-axis radial force sensor offers two measuring axis, vertically to each other. Force introduction occurs radially at the bearing journal. Any acting force can be splitted vectorially into X- and Y-components.
Fields of application:
- for research and industry
- acquisition of axle loads, bearing reactions and unbalances
- XY-force measurement on shafts and axles force measurement on pivot joints and crankshafts
- recording of polar force diagrams
The high mechanical stiffness of the load cell enables measurement with virtually no excursion. The specified and calibrated accuracy remains unchanged throughout the unit’s service life and, across wide ranges, is independent of direct axial forces. Both force signals get conditioned with a 2-channel measuring amplifier solution. Value and direction of the acting force are acquired. For analysis the data can be stored in the PC, e.g. with the software HCC-Easy. Its export function enables the user to transfer the data to further software for extended analysis, e.g. generating a XY-diagram. |  |
