The use of multi-axis load cells is very common, such as balances in wind tunnels and structures. They are designed to measure forces in three directions and torque or moments in three directions. Typical multi-axis load cells are used in offshore industry, industrial test benches and crash tests. The article will mainly introduce what the 3D force sensor can measure.
Three-dimensional force sensors are also called three-axis force sensors, three-component force sensors, three-axis load cells, three-component load cells, three-component force balances, multi-dimensional force sensors, etc. It can detect the force value changes in three directions in space at the same time, x-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis (vertical tension pressure), and output three sets of voltage signals at the same time. The three-dimensional force sensor has three types of measurement loads (per channel), The data value can be displayed by the multi-channel display meter.
The multi-axis sensor is a force torque sensor, which measures the force (Fx, FY, FZ) and torque (MX, MY, MZ) in multiple different directions, in 3 spatial directions, and converts them into electrical output signals. Multi-axis sensors are also called multi-component sensors or force torque sensors (ie: two-axis force sensor, three-axis force sensor, six-axis sensor, six-axis load cell, six-degree-of-freedom load cell).
The three-dimensional force sensor can measure along any of the three spatial axes. The three-dimensional force sensor series enables a simple and accurate measurement of three vertical components (x/y/z) in any direction, dynamic or quasi-static force.
The three-dimensional force sensor is used to measure the force in any given direction, regardless of the load application point. The three-dimensional force ring force sensor quantifies all three components of any applied force with a higher resolution. The three-dimensional force sensor can accurately and effectively realize the three-dimensional force measurement, with good linearity, repeatability and consistency. Due to its good stability and anti-interference ability, it can work in harsh environments.
The output of the three-dimensional force sensor is a very linear charge in its entire measurement range. This load is proportional to the applied force. The sensor housing contains a quartz ring, and each force element can be precisely aligned and mounted due to its flat sides. The simple and anti-vibration design of the sensor is very rigid, and its unique high natural frequency enables the measurement of high dynamic force processes.
There are two ceramic discs on the contact surface of the three-dimensional force sensor. On the one hand, a high friction coefficient can be ensured, and on the other hand, a quality insulation device can be installed in the machine structure. The measurement range of the shear force in the x and y directions directly depends on the preload in the z direction and the resulting axial static friction.
Application of three-dimensional force sensor
From the above we know that the three-dimensional force sensor can measure forces in three directions, which means it can measure the X, Y, and Z axes, as well as the rotation around each axis. Having the right tools for the job is essential to be able to get the desired results from the test. Single-axis force sensors are used to measure force in a single direction. For more complex force measurements, it is vital that a three-dimensional force sensor becomes used to obtain the results.
Almost all aerospace products require precise measurement. All components need to be closely monitored to ensure that there are no potential problems that could cause failures. Customized 3D force sensors are ideal for measuring key mechanical features in aerospace products that require reliability and accuracy.
The three-dimensional force sensor can be installed on the Jiezhong automated manipulator to sense the size and position of the three-dimensional force. In the case of a flexible smart keyboard, the presented sensor array can significantly save space and recognize multiple specific input features. Enhance information security. As a car controller, the three-dimensional force sensor has multi-functional integration and portability, and has great potential to replace traditional operation methods.
