Measurement Specialties enables OEMs to measure force using Microfused™ load cells. The same proprietary piezoresistive silicon strain gage technology used to measure pressure can also be configured into a reliable, low-cost package to measure force. The flexible technology allows us to design tension, compression, or both into one simple, inexpensive construction.
Features of our Microfused™ force sensors (load cells) 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 such as medical pumps and monitors, robotics, compression sensing, variable tension control, seat occupancy detection and appliances.
