Micro button load cell 0-100kg Miniature compression sensor

The Subminiature Button Load Cell LCB01 is an ultra-compact force sensor engineered to thrive in environments where space constraints demand precision without compromise. Designed with a diaphragm structure optimized for compression force measurement, this miniature load cell combines exceptional accuracy with a footprint of just 8mm in diameter and 6mm in height—making it one of the smallest sensors in its class. Available in capacities ranging from 5kgf to 100kgf, the LCB01 is a powerhouse of reliability, delivering robust performance even in the most challenging industrial, research, or automation settings. Central to its design is a precision-machined load button positioned atop the sensor, ensuring uniform force distribution across its surface. This critical feature minimizes measurement errors caused by off-center loads, guaranteeing repeatable results under variable or dynamic conditions. The LCB01's stainless steel construction not only enhances durability but also provides resistance to corrosion, wear, and temperature fluctuations, making it ideal for harsh environments. Its rugged build withstands repeated cycles, ensuring longevity in high-use applications like assembly lines or automated testing systems.

Installation flexibility is a hallmark of the LCB01. The sensor can be securely bonded to flat surfaces using adhesive or sandwiched between mechanical assemblies, enabling seamless integration into tight spaces. This versatility makes it indispensable for applications such as micro-mechanical force monitoring, robotic end-effector calibration, or embedded systems in medical devices where every millimeter counts. The LCB01 smallest button load cell leverages strain gauge technology to generate an analog millivolt (mV) output proportional to the applied force. For compatibility with modern data acquisition systems, external amplifiers (sold separately) convert this signal into industry-standard outputs like 0-5V, 0-10V, or 4-20mA. These options simplify connectivity with PLCs, IoT-enabled controllers, and real-time monitoring software, empowering users to streamline workflows and enhance quality control processes. A standout feature is the sensor's sealed, IP-rated design, which protects against moisture, dust, and chemical exposure. This resilience broadens its application scope to include outdoor equipment, food processing machinery, or pharmaceutical production lines where environmental resistance is non-negotiable. Additionally, the LCB01 excels in R&D labs for prototyping force-sensitive devices, in aerospace for component stress-testing, and in automotive manufacturing for precision torque validation during assembly.

Beyond its standard offerings, the micro compression sensor LCB01 can be customized for specialized tasks. OEMs and engineers can collaborate with manufacturers to tailor aspects such as load ranges, connectors, or housing materials, ensuring the sensor aligns perfectly with unique project requirements. By merging microscopic dimensions with industrial-grade robustness, the LCB01 redefines what's possible in confined-space force measurement. Whether deployed in smart factories, wearable medical tech, or cutting-edge robotics, this subminiature load cell proves that size is no barrier to accuracy, durability, or versatility.
