Force Transducers

Explanations of force and torque measurement terms can be found in our Technical Glossary (DE)

 

  Type Application Compression force Tension force Dynamic Force range / kN  
Serie KS

Precision force measurement

The supplement of the K series for smaller forces. Accurate, reliable and robust.

Serie K

Precision force measurement

The K series is suitable for all applications requiring high precision over a large measuring range or where interferences may affect the measuring results beyond a permissible degree.

Serie RF

Precision force measurement

The ruggedness of the RF series makes it ideal for critical load applications with concurrent high precision requirements and it is also ideally suited to endurance testing.

Serie RF-I

Precision force measurement

Completes the RF series with commonly found mounting dimensions in testing machines and hydraulic cylinders.

Serie UB

Industrial force measurement

With the UB series (designed as a rotationally symmetric bolt type), GTM offers a lightweight transducer with an extremely small diameter and high natural frequency.

Serie KTN-Z/D

Calibration of standard machines

The KTN-Z/D series is used for tension and compression forces, and extends the application areas for pure compression force versions with a high level of precision. 

Expanding of Serie KTN-Z/D

For small forces:

5 N, 10 N, 20 N, 50 N and 100 N

Serie KTN-D

Calibration of standard machines

KTN-D compressive force transducers offer the highest levels of precision for comparing national institutes with one another or tracing accredited calibration laboratories

Serie KTN-P

Calibration of testing machines

The KTN-P series is specially tailored to the requirements for calibrating material testing machines and is specified for a measuring range between 5% and 100%.

Serie ZST

Calibration of testing machines

Due to their low weight, the tension bars on the ZST series used for calibrating material testing machines show a clear handling advantage, especially at nominal loads of 500 kN and upwards.
