Force Transducers and Load Cells [N]

In Force Measurement we set the Standards

GTM force measuring technology and force transducers define standards for correct measurement of forces of all orders of magnitude. GTM load cells are considered the benchmark for precision and technology – from force sensors for precision force measurement of low pulling and pushing forces, to force measurement test benches and dynamic force measurement. Also with respect to leading force transfer standards GTM is your competent partner for mobile and stationary calibration of force measurement equipment and test benches, from factory standards to reference standards, and even calibration and traceability to the national force standard.

Your measurable GTM Customer Benefits: High-Precision Force Transducers and Force Transfer Standards

We support you in finding a solution for your torque measurement task with a huge diversity of functions that can be ideally adapted to the requirements of your application. Configure your custom force load cell on the basis of GTM’s diverse options. Our experts will support you first-hand with planning, engineering, installation and commissioning – always with the goal of providing a suitable and efficient force sensor solution for your force measurement application, with no compromises in quality, performance and precision.

Designed for Precision
Force Transducers for Reliable Measurements

All GTM force transducers feature outstanding precision and minimal margins of error throughout the entire force measurement range. In many cases this eliminates the need to purchase a second force transducer. All GTM force transducers are extremely insensitive to parasitic influences such as shear forces, bending moments, torsional moments or temperature fluctuations. GTM relies exclusively on high-quality connecting cables in 6-wire design.

Designed for your Application
Force Transducers for Static and Dynamic Applications

Most GTM load cells are ideally suited for static and dynamic applications: GTM force transducers feature very short mechanical measuring paths, and therefore high rigidity – an important prerequisite for high resonance frequencies especially in the case of dynamic applications and heavy mounting components.

Designed for Metrology & Traceability
Force Transfer Standards and Reference Transducers

Our Best-in-Class force transfer standards are the best the market has to offer in terms of precision in metrological traceability, and for 20 years have become standard at numerous National Metrological Institutes (NMI). The KTN-D series even exceeds the ISO376 standard many times over and therefore measures at the physical limit.

Your Best-In-Class Partner
Development and Production in Germany and Europe

All GTM development processes are carried out in Germany. The same applies to customizing and OEM. Our force transducers are produced in Germany and Europe. That ensures that you always have a secure and reliable supply chain – developed and produced in Europe.
