GREATER VALUE

The NOSHOK-TECSIS sputtered thin film force sensor is laser welded for the optimum in manufacturing consistency and cost. This means that the resultant product is more attractive to the OEM who demands high performance and value.


COMPACT and FLEXIBLE

Each force sensing deformation body is custom designed to meet the specific needs of each customer and because the sensor is small, there is an endless array of possible configurations with a full bridge circuit.


BROAD APPLICATIONS

Through customization of the deformation structure, and the state-of-the-art design techniques, the tension and shearing components result in a linearity of less than 1%. The bridge signal is identical to the pressure load applied with current and voltage output signals available.

The NOSHOK-TECSIS Custom Force Sensor is the ideal force measurement solution with a proven thin film sensor integrated into a custom designed deformation body structure. The result is an unsurpassed level of performance and a new standard for electronic force measurement. In many cases conventional force sensors lack the adaptability in construction to suit the customer’s specific requirements, forcing the customer to alter their design needs to meet the specifications of the “standard” cataloged force sensor. Now, NOSHOK makes it possible for the customer to receive an application specific, engineered force sensor suited for their specific requirements. All while being provided with the highest accuracy levels, proven sputtered thin film sensor technology and the highest level of reliability. The possibilities are endless…and NOSHOK-TECSIS custom force sensors are there to meet them.
