The TULIP Transducer is designed to be implanted into the heart of the structure to provide dependable strain sensing. The Press-Fit construction allows easy installation. This load sensor gives the machine, device or structure an accurate load
sensing capability by simply drilling a hole. The economic solution for:- Industiral weighing
- Level control systems
- Machine control systems
The idea of developing a sensor capable of being integrated into a mechanical structure has resulted in the TULIP Transducer. Its unique shape (sensing strain in 2 axes) combined with proven strain gauge technology solves a wide range of actual application problems. Installation normally requires only machining a suitable hole in the structural part, and insertion of the sensor. The sensor’s accuracy combined with its stainless steel and hermetically sealed housing guarantees success in the worst hostile environments. The sensor has unchallenged application versatility; virtually any machine, device or structure can use this sensor as a cost effective, accurate solution to your sensing needs. Only the designer’s ingenuity limits the application of this concept. Compared to similar products in the market like Bolt-On types, the TULIP has specific advantages: - Because of its unique ability to sense strain in 2 axes, zero shift due to thermal effects are greatly reduced
- The TULIP is hermetically sealed
- The press-fit construction allows better long term stability
- The press-fit construction allows installation in the neutral axis of the structure
