AXIS-LOAD

Axis measurement - system technology

Wireless measurement of forces and weights in any location

This specialist area in the load and force measurement technology sector opens up new horizons for product and production control. Loads and forces can be measured directly in the axis, their origin identified, information transmitted wirelessly directly to the computer network and the results processed immediately.

This not only saves time and money but also allows controls to be installed cost effectively even in locations where fixed installations would be too expensive.

The process itself is simple. Load and force measurement data are recorded in the axis, digitalised and accessed via a handheld terminal. Each measurement transferred between the weighing sensor and the handheld terminal via the point-to-point connection has a unique code ensuring clear identification of the measurement values and providing the option of use in legal-for-trade applications.

The process operates in the licence free frequency band. The extremely small weighing and transmitting components specially developed for this system also permit it to be used for relatively small axes. Extremely low power consumption guarantees long intervals between recharging. In many applications, the need for recharging can be eliminated entirely by the use of independent power supplies. Transmission of barcode or RFID data can be actively linked using this system.

Suitable software programs tailored to the specific requirements of the application easily transform this system into a complex product quality and control system for production and logistics.
