6 Axis Wheel Force Transducer - 222 kN - Heavy Duty

Presentation

The LW-2T-50K Wheel Force Transducer (WFT) is capable of measuring all of the wheel forces and moments on Class 8 trucks. It provides independent output signals for vertical, lateral, and longitudinal forces as well as camber, steer and torque moments. The system is completely weatherproof making it ideal for on-road and off-road measurements. It can also be used to monitor and control laboratory tests. One sensor measures the combined loads for a dual wheel set or a single tire.

Installation and Data transmission

The matching Amplifier / Slip Ring package easily mounts onto the transducer. It amplifies and digitizes the transducer signals before they pass through the slip ring.
