Description
Variense FSE1001 is a unique uni-axial
force sensor. Force sensors are robust
mechanical devices that exhibit a
variation in signal when force is exerted
on the surface of the sensor. This sensory
information can then be used to improve
the user’s control of electronic devices in
industrial and robotics applications, such
as automotive electronics and medical
systems.
The new digital FSE1001 is a round
sensor with a diameter of 60 mm,
that can measure one component
of force (tension and compression).
It is based on capacitive technology,
which is highly adaptive to various
applications. Intelligent functionality,
maximum sensitivity and ultimate
compactness ensure that the sensor
will t your system proprely. Custom
sensors can be manufactured in sizes
ranging from 30 mm to over 600 mm.
You can also customize the protocols of
communication to suit your needs.
