Pressure force transducer

Pressure force transducers from octogon, also known as pressure load cells, are used to precisely measure compressive forces and are used in a wide variety of industrial environments. These sensors convert the force acting on them into an electrical signal, which can then be measured and evaluated . Pressure force transducers are characterized by their compact design, which allows them to be used even in confined spaces . They are used in many areas, such as determining press-in forces, measuring preload forces on screws, or determining screw pressure in injection molding and extrusion machines . The most common technology in pressure force transducers is based on strain gauges (SGs), which experience a change in resistance when a force is applied. This change is then converted into a measurement signal .
