Me-Systeme 6A 6-Axis Load Cell

The 6A series of load cells feature six independent, temperature compensated bridges providing mV/V output to six independent channels. This enables measurement in three perpendicular axis simultaneously with three torque measurements about those axis. The 6A series is available in 10+ different sizes to meet you requirements, most with IP67 environmental sealing. Applications include: Orthopedic and biomechanical research Robotics Aerospace research

Automotive testing

Wind tunnel model tests. IP68, submersible versions for wave tank or other submersible applications are available on request

Capacities from 50N/1Nm to 400kN/40kNm
Force and torque measurement in X, Y & Z axes
Low crosstalk, just ±1%
Option: Enhanced correction with 2nd crosstalk matrix
Temperature compensated (most models)
Most models IP67 rated
Submersible (IP67+) option on higher capacities
