Force Sensor Elements
-
The STL Force Sensing Tension Links are a series of unique force sensors. The Tension Links utilize the internal strain gage process sucessfully and are used in bolts, load pins and flat load cells. The sensing element consists of a strain gage bridge circuit internally installed in a small hole along the longitudinal axis. This unique arrangement provides a most effective means for the protective sealing of the internal electronics while minimizing the adverse effects of extraneous torsion and bending loads.
