Presentation

The force sensor KD68 has the geometry of a miniature load cell. It is fastened on one side using the through holes ø6. There is a thread M6 for force transmission. The surfaces for mounting the sensor and for mounting the force introduction are offset by 1.5 mm so that the sensor can be mounted without additional spacers. Due to its very flat design, the sensor is also suitable for mounting between plates to build up a force measuring plate, for example to determine the center of pressure (COP).

Force transmission is displaced parallel under loading. The force sensor tolerates displacements of force transmission and lateral forces due to its design as a double beam (lateral force limit : 200% of nominal force). The force sensor KD68 is designed as a multi-range sensor. Available measuring ranges are : ±5N, ±10N, ±20N, ±50N, ±100N, ±200N, ±500N, ±1000N. The accuracy of 0.1% is already reached at a nominal output of 1mV/V. The maximal operating force is 400% of the nominal effort.

Various solutions are offered for the output amplification including:
