0-200N Micro force sensor with M2 mounting holes
The LCS01 miniature force transducer is a high-performance force sensor renowned for its compact design, exceptional accuracy, and bidirectional measurement capabilities. Engineered for applications where space and weight are critical, this stainless steel sensor combines laboratory-grade precision with industrial durability, making it a go-to solution for industries ranging from robotics to textile manufacturing.
With dimensions of just 13x13x5mm and a total weight of 30 grams (including a 3-meter cable), the LCS01 is one of the smallest S-beam load cells on the market. Its miniature footprint and lightweight construction make it ideal for integration into tight spaces or portable devices, such as wearable robotics, precision medical instruments, or micro-assembly systems. The sensor features M2 tapped holes on both ends, enabling effortless attachment of threaded rod-ends, eye bolts, or custom fixtures. This design simplifies installation in existing setups while ensuring secure force transmission along the sensor's axis.
The LCS01 miniature s-beam jr. load cell leverages strain gauge technology to deliver bidirectional force measurement in both tension (pull) and compression (push) directions. With capacities spanning 10N, 20N, 50N, 100N, and 200N, it accommodates a wide range of low-force applications. Its standout feature is a non-linearity of less than 0.1% of full scale, ensuring repeatable accuracy even under dynamic or variable loading conditions. This precision is critical for tasks like calibrating delicate instruments, validating micro-mechanical components, or ensuring consistent force in automated processes.
Crafted from high-quality stainless steel, the LCS01 compact force measurement sensor is designed for durability and reliability, ensuring long-lasting performance in high-cycle applications, such as production-line testing or robotic assembly, while maintaining sensitivity to detect minute force changes. The integrated 3-meter cable provides flexibility for routing in complex machinery or confined spaces, for applications involving cable bending, we offer cables without jackets to minimize the impact of bending stress on measurement accuracy.
