Miniature force washers

23 May 2017

Three new piezoelectric miniature force washers enable force to be measured at locations where standard force sensors cannot be installed, according to HBM.

Available in three new capacities, (3, 14 and 36kN) the latest additions completeHBM's PACEline CLP range and are available for instant integration into existing set ups using all industry-standard screw connections from M2.5 to M14.

Featuring a compact design the latest additions can be easily installed in very small sets ups, without the need to resize or adapt the screw or bolt connections, offering substantial time savings.

Piezoelectric force washers use a measurement principle whereby the sensitivity does not depend on the nominal force, which makes the PACEline CLP range  suitable for measurements in partial load ranges, where greater resolution is required.

All products in the PACEline CLP range feature a symmetrical design to give good linearity and have very minimal displacement, which results in very high stiffness and excellent dynamic properties.

Suitable for machine monitoring applications and laboratory experiments, the PACEline CLP range of piezoelectric load washers feature a minimal height of typically 4mm, which is particularly suitable when space is constrained. 

Available in seven different versions ranging from 3 to 80kN and manufactured from stainless steel, all washers in the PACEline CLP range are RoHS compliant and come complete with an integrated cable of either 0.5 or 1m long.
