Catalogue covers force, strain and torque sensors
PCB Piezotronics Inc has published a comprehensive, 200-page product catalogue, entitled, Sensors for Force, Load, Strain and Torque. Featured products include a broad range of ICP and charge output, piezoelectric force sensors, TORKDISC rotary torque sensors and strain-gauge load cells, all with the accuracy and durability to satisfy a wide range of test, measurement, monitoring and control requirements.
Piezoelectric force sensors satisfy dynamic force measurement applications, such as automotive durability testing, impact, reaction, materials testing, balancing and manufacturing processes such as crimping, riveting and stamping. Utilising rigid quartz sensing crystals, these sensors possess microsecond response times and the durability required of repetitive machinery operations.
Torque sensors are offered for reaction as well as rotational torque measurements utilising strain gauge sensors with non-contact rotary transformer and digital telemetry signal transmission techniques. These sensors satisfy automotive chassis dynamometer testing, drive train testing, electric motor testing and hydraulic pump testing requirements.
Load cells are offered in a variety of configurations including general-purpose and fatigue-rated styles to satisfy routine and unusual applications in weighing, testing, production monitoring and automotive testing applications. Also included in the catalogue is additional accessory equipment including signal conditioners, cables and mounting hardware, as well as technical information, product selection guides and installation tips.
