The advantages of piezoelectric sensors are particularly evident in force measurement. Robust and overload-proof, they are capable of resolving the smallest changes in force, even with high preload.
Characteristics
Thanks to high resolution suitable for measuring extremely small dynamic forces, low height, insensitive to the effects of temperature.
Applications
Cutting force measurement in ultra-precision machining (such as wafer cutting, grinding of hard disk read heads), ultra-precision machining of brittle-hard materials, 3-component force measurement of extremely small forces, measurement in confined spaces.
