Force sensors are piezoelectric transducers that convert input mechanical forces into electrical output signals. They can measure gravitational force (weight), compression, strain, and magnetic forces. These sensors fall into two main categories: load cells and force...
The three primary functions of force sensors are to detect: Force from an applied load Rate of change of a force load over time Presence of pressure or contact They can monitor forces to ensure safe operating conditions and detect force thresholds during operation....
