Miniature force cell 10N 20N 50N 100N 200N Tension compression sensor

The Micro Force Sensor LCF02 is a compact, high-performance load cell engineered to deliver precise force measurements in both traction and compression applications. Designed with versatility in mind, this sensor combines a space-saving cylindrical form factor—measuring just 10mm in diameter and 12mm in height—with robust mounting features. Its base includes two M2 threaded holes for secure attachment to flat surfaces, while the top features an M3 threaded hole to facilitate direct force application. Available in capacities ranging from 10N to 200N, the LCF02 is ideal for low-force measurement tasks across industries, offering adaptability for diverse testing and monitoring scenarios.
A standout feature of the LCF02 is its high-stiffness design, which minimizes deformation to a mere 0.07mm under rated load. This ensures exceptional accuracy and responsiveness, even in dynamic applications where rapid force fluctuations occur. The sensor’s compact dimensions make it particularly suited for integration into tight spaces, such as portable testing devices, precision machinery, or automated production lines where space optimization is critical. Despite its miniature size, the Miniature Force Cell LCF02 maintains rigorous performance standards, providing reliable data for both static and dynamic measurements.

Constructed from stainless steel, the force transducer LCF02 is built to withstand demanding environments, offering corrosion resistance and long-term durability. Its sensing mechanism employs a Wheatstone full bridge strain gauge bonded to the sensor's elastic body, generating a millivolt-level output proportional to the applied force. For seamless integration with data acquisition systems, this analog signal can be converted to industry-standard outputs—such as 0-5V, 0-10V, or 4-20mA—using an external signal conditioner. This flexibility ensures compatibility with a wide array of controllers, PLCs, and monitoring software, simplifying integration into existing workflows.
The miniature tension compression sensor LCF02 excels in high-precision applications where repeatability and accuracy are paramount. For instance, in hardness testing, its minimal deformation ensures consistent force application, while in spring testing, it delivers reliable cyclic measurements for quality validation. Additional use cases include press-in force verification during assembly, end-of-line product testing, and real-time industrial process control, where continuous load monitoring safeguards operational efficiency and product consistency.

Recognizing that unique challenges often require tailored solutions, the Force Sensing Load Cell LCF02 can be customized to meet specialized requirements. Leveraging over a decade of expertise in load cell design, manufacturers offer modifications to dimensions, connectors, or output configurations, ensuring the sensor aligns perfectly with application-specific demands. This adaptability, combined with its rugged construction and precision, positions the LCF02 as a versatile solution for industries ranging from aerospace and automotive to biomedical engineering and robotics. Whether deployed in lab environments or integrated into automated production systems, the LCF02 stands out as a reliable, scalable tool for advancing accuracy and efficiency in force measurement.
