Force sensors
by Senstech
Senstech offers a standard program of miniature force sensors for common applications. Even for small quantities those standard sensors can be adapted to specific requirements. Senstech thin film force sensors are used in a wide range of medical and industrial devices.

Standard Range
Force sensors from Senstech standard range are suitable for many applications, especially when small quantities are required. For some sensors in the range, adaptations to customer-specific requirements are possible if none of the available products meet the desired requirements. Such adaptations are, for example, milled grooves or adaptations of the signal amplification factor.
A large measuring range is characterizing force sensors made by Senstech – at least up to 2000 N can be measured. In order to monitor even larger forces, the deformation of a suitable measuring body can be monitored with a Senstech displacement transducer. For complex substrate bodies, force sensors with up to 6 degrees of freedom can be realised. As standard, Senstech force sensors can be equipped with integrated, programmable instrumentation amplifiers.
OEM Force Sensors
Whether you need a force sensor for greater loads or a force sensor with special dimensions or even a sensor individually customized to your application requirements, at Senstech a competent team of specialists will find and develop the optimum solution for you. Senstech develops according to your specifications, such as installation situation, environmental influences, error tolerances. The following criteria are important for the development of force sensors:
- Definition of geometry and material of the sensor
- Layout of the thin-film elements
- Adaptation to mechanical and electrical interfaces
- Signal processing
