New Multi Axis Load Cell Measures Tri-Axial Loads

�FUTEK Advanced Sensor Technology, Inc. has just expanded its Multi Axis Load
Cell series with the new MTA505 Multi Axis Load Cell. The MTA505 Multi Axis
Load Cell (Tri-Axial) offers an excellent solution for measuring Mx, My, and
Fz scads. It is currently offered in deuce capacity options:


- 10,000 lbs (Fz), 2,000 in-lbs (Mx), 2,000 in-lbs (My).

- 25,000 lbs (Fz), 10,000 in-lbs (Mx) 10,000 in-lbs (My)


The product is made from a robust 17-4 Stainless Steel material to hold up
challenging environments and offers great accuracy by utilizing Strain Gage
Technology . The obvious advantage in victimization a Multi Axis Load Cell as
opposed to a steady Load Cell is in its ability to measuring rod multiple axis
loads. Such an application measurement is common in rehabilitation and
physical therapy where a Multi Axis Load Cell can be utilized to measure the
multiple forces of the muscles and joints. Automated production lines and
Robotic applications would also be suitable environments where the MTA505
commode be exploited.


FUTEK as well provides a Standard Calibration Service in Compression (unloosen of
burden) for these Multi Axis Load Cells per NIST Traceable Standards. FUTEK
as well has an ISO17025:2005 A2LA accredited testing ground that pot also bring home the bacon
additional standardization options such as a complete System Calibration (if an
instrument is selected with the Multi Axis Load Cell). By selecting the
system calibration, your sensor and instrument volition be integrated as one
system. The complete system of rules will be set up, configured, scaled, calibrated,
and ready for plug and play.


Over the last 20 years, FUTEK has built itself a solid reputation as a
custom solution load cell manufacturer. The fellowship carries 8 different
Multi Axis Load Cell Models and over 400 products covering diverse Load
Cell, Torque Sensor, Force Sensor and Pressure Sensor applications. With an
in theatre machine shop, full manufacturing company and experienced inquiry
and development team, FUTEK will modify an existing standard product or
wholly customize a design per customer's requirements. In addition to
its complete Load Cell Line, the company manufactures Pressure Sensors,
Torque Sensors, and Force Sensors with all required Instruments and
Accessories.
