GTM
Insensitive to parasitic influences
With an accuracy class of 0.02 to 0.05 and a nominal force range of 200 N to 630 kN, GTM's 'K series' force transducers are the 'premier class' of the supplier's force sensors.
Thanks to the bending ring principle, the sensors from GTM are largely insensitive to so-called parasitic influences such as lateral forces, bending moments, torsional moments and temperature fluctuations. The sensors can withstand forces of up to 300 % of the nominal force without breaking and up to 150 % of the nominal force without zero point displacement. The series enables measurement over the entire measuring range, from the lowest load to the nominal force. This means that the same force transducer can be used for the largest possible measuring range. Typical areas of application are material and component testing, production applications for process control and quality assurance or use in static and dynamic testing machines.
