Force measurement technology made in Germany

Universal force gauges

Universal force gauges

We design and produce digital force gauges for the most varied applications, including medical engineering and industrial production, and in agriculture or the monitoring of plant, cable or chain tensions, contact pressures, etc. Force sensors are combined with portable hand or large displays in this context. The type of signal output, data transfer and maximum data logging is selected to suit customer requirements.

Product overview

Force gauges and portable scales


Force gauge ZW 5.0

This force gauge is available in load ranges from 500 to 5000N. It consists of two HKM components: a shear force load cell as a transducer and a hand terminal connected by a cable. The compact size of the transducer makes the ZW 5.0 ideally suitable for use in conditions where space is restricted. The transducer can be adapted with spherical rod ends and eyebolts. Other forms of force introduction are possible directly via the two mounting threads on the shear force load cell. Simple control is possible using the hand terminal on which measured values are displayed.

This force gauge can also be calibrated in kg and used as a hanging scale.

Force gauges ZW 6.0, 7.0, 8.0

These force gauges for use in load ranges from 10 to 100kN consist of two HKM components: a shear force load cell as a transducer and a hand terminal connected by a cable. The transducers are particularly suitable for measuring major forces. The transducer can be adapted with spherical rod ends and eyebolts. Other forms of force introduction are possible directly via the two mounting threads on the shear force load cell. Simple control is possible using the hand terminal on which measured values are displayed.

These force gauges can also be calibrated in kg and used as a hanging scale.

Force gauge for compression forces DDH

This force gauge is the ideal instrument for the exclusive measurement of compression forces or contact pressures. It consists of two HKM components: a compression load cell as a transducer and a hand terminal firmly connected by a cable. The load cells are distinguished by a high nominal load range up to 200kN. Simple control is possible using the hand terminal on which measured values are displayed. A miniature version of the compression force transducer is available in the load range up to 1000N.

These force gauges can also be calibrated in kg.
