High-sensitivity strain transducer

31 May 2013

To meet growing industrial demand for compact measurement technology featuring high sensitivity, HBM has launched the CST/300 piezoelectric strain sensor.

The CST/300 piezoelectric strain transducer features a sensitivity of around 50 pC/N to ensure very high output signals and good reproducibility, even in challenging measurement environments. Very small strains of 10 µm/m or less, or nominal strains of up to 300 µm/m, can easily be measured.

 

HBM’s innovative development of piezoelectrics in the CST/300 overcomes the traditional limits of strain sensors have in measuring minute strains, such as in objects that only evidence minor deformations under load, such as presses, welding plants or crimping machines, or when there is very little space available.
