SMX.dms-a
A compact strain sensor for measuring forces, weights, and vibrations in mobile machines.
Summary
The SMX.dms-a strain sensor measures deflections in machine components to indirectly capture forces, weights, and vibrations. Its low-profile housing, analog and digital outputs, and openSYDE support make it easy to integrate into new or existing mobile machine applications. Designed for simple installation and fast field replacement, the sensor helps reduce downtime during production and service.
