260A11 Three Component Force Sensor

   Request Info 

  • The new 3-Component force sensor simultaneously measures force in three orthogonal directions. Each sensor is structured with a quartz element that provides long term stability, high stiffness and a wide dynamic range. It features rugged, welded hermetic stainless steel construction.

  • This 3-component force sensor is commonly used for monitoring cutting tool forces, modal analysis, engine mount analysis, biomechanics and impact testing. Different sizes are available to meet a wide range of measurement needs
