Force Sensors - Sense Elements and Packaged Assemblies

Measurement Specialties enables OEMs to measure force using low cost Microfused™ load cells. Five configurations are currently available, with customization offered for high volume applications. Measurement Specialties also offers packaged load cell assemblies for test and measurement applications that require high performance or unique packaging. For dynamic impact applications such as industrial stamping or ballistics, our Piezo Film provides a reliable way to measure force up to thousands of pounds.

Sense Elements

Measurement Specialties’s proprietary Microfused™ force sense elements are built with the same glass-bonded silicon strain gage technology used to measure pressure. This flexible technology allows us to design tension, compression or both into one simple, inexpensive construction. Features include low cost, small size, low noise, robust design, high reliability and fast response time. Microfused™ load cells are used in consumer, medical and industrial applications.

Packaged Assemblies

High performance load cells are available from Measurement Specialties for specialized applications. Examples include subminiature, low profile, high precision and high stability.
