Highly Accurate Dual-Axis Measurement with Minimal Crosstalk
Introducing the Applied Measurements DBBSS/TSF dual-axis force and torque sensor—a compact and precise transducer meticulously crafted for measuring static torque and axial loads in both clockwise and counter-clockwise rotations, as well as tension and compression.
Engineered with a distinctive design, this 2-axis force and torque sensor boasts minimal crosstalk between axes, typically less than 1%, ensuring exceptional accuracy. Achieving better than 0.1% accuracy of the rated capacity in both torque and force modes, it guarantees reliable measurements.
Ideal for applications requiring simultaneous measurement of forces in two perpendicular directions, the 2-axis load cell becomes an invaluable tool in accurately monitoring and analyzing multidirectional forces. Widely utilized in geotechnical and materials testing sectors, it serves as a central component in high-precision analytical test equipment. Its versatile design extends its applicability to a vast array of other dual-axis measurement needs.
Recognizing the diverse requirements of applications, the DBBSS/TSF series allows for customization in terms of size, capacity, and the configuration of mounting holes or fixtures. We're delighted to offer design modifications tailored to seamlessly integrate the sensor into your specific application, often with little or no impact on cost.
