Linear actuator with force sensor.

From the example above and we got a result in 171 73 lbf.
And the force sensor carries the same ip rating of the actuator since it is located inside the actuator s case.
This embedded force measuring option eliminates much of the effort and the risk associated with measuring the applied force produced by the actuator.
A precision linear actuator is a positioning device that provides motion in 1 degree of freedom.
A high speed linear actuator would also be rated by the amount of time required to complete its linear travel such as inches per second.
The actuator typically does not move as it applies force.
The strain gauge load sensor used to measure applied force is mounted inside the actuator s case protecting it from external damage and guaran teeing accurate and consistent force data.
A linear actuator uses one of a variety of mechanisms to produce motion in a straight line.
Pi designs and manufactures a variety of precision linear actuators pushers including economical stepper motor driven actuators high speed linear motor types for automation and nanometer precise piezo motor actuators.
The range of motion is called the stroke and can be measured in foot pounds of torque and inches of travel.
Linear actuator with force sensor.
Typically the load cell s rating is matched to full load capacity of the actuator.
