About the XFU400 Miniature Force Sensor
Available in a range of measurements and a variety of mounting threads, the XFU400 is easily installed.
Its miniature size facilitates testing where space is at a premium. The sensing element is fitted with a fully temperature compensated Wheatstone bridge equipped with high stability micro-machined silicon strain gages.
The XFU400 is used in applications that require a spherical plain rod-end bearing and has the capacity of accepting a full scale range of up to 5 kN [1 klbf].
Applications for XFU400
- Linkage forces
- Machine tool
- Automotive systems test
- Robotics and effectors
