Compact force transducer
23 April 2015
As precise measurements of especially small forces in a given measuring environment often place high requirements on force transducers, HBM has developed a new force transducer with a nominal force of 25kN.
Capable of measuring extremely small forces reliably, the CFT-25kN is said to be just 3% the size of other transducers on the market using similar sensors.
Made to the highest quality using Gallium Phosphate, HBM says the CFT-25kN produces twice as high an output signal for the same measurement load in comparison to Quartz.
Featuring a high degree of rigidity and a rugged design, the CFT-25kN is said to be particularly useful in adverse industry environments. Customers who expose their products to extreme conditions, such as sealing and reshaping processes and component tests, can benefit from the wide temperature range of -40 to 120°C. Elimination of drift, which is often seen as a frustrating effect, is also reduced.
The mechanical connection has a flange screw on both sides and a central bore, so the CFT-25kN force transducer can be easily and quickly integrated into existing systems.
