Force
meters for laboratories, for measuring in situ and
for educational purposes are available on the web.
Force meters are accurate to ±0.3% of the
load and have a range of 20% of the surface weight
and provide measurements in grams (g) and Newton
(N). The devices with a surface weight of 5 to 1000gr
have a clamp as a load support, and those of 2.5 to 50kg
have a hook and most devices up to 100 t, a
carabiner.
Mea suring with a compression kit available on the web
can convert a traction meter, w ith a simple change,
into a compression meter. Together,
with mechanical force meters, we also offer digital
force meters. These are available with an RS-232
interface and require an optional software pack to
allow for data to be transferred to a computer for
analysis. Mechanical force meters are applicable for
educational purposes. The larger models come
equipped with a segmented indicator and a drag
needle. Digital force meters are primarily used in
research and development. If you don't find
the distance meters you are looking for, please
contact us and we will help you find the best
solution to suit your needs by calling our German
offices:
+49 (0)29 03 976 99-52;
our Italian offices:

and our technical staff will advise you
regarding our measuring instruments.

Apart from measuring maximum
force of a of a tear or a break, with
the hel p of force
meters, it can determine the temporal discourse of force.
To do this, an optional software pack is required and
the LTS-20 manual test position. To the right you can
see a photograph showing the combination of these
devices. The PCE-FM series of force meters can determine
many measurement values, but the software is able to ransfer this data, one value every 2 seconds. If a
higher transfer rate is required, Windows hyper terminal
can be used. Call us our German offices:
+49 (0)29 03 976 99-52;
our Italian offices:
+39 0583 975 114;
or our Spanish offices:
