Type 9017C 9027C 9047C 9067C 9077C (incl 90x8 and 90x6 sets)

High-precision triaxial force ring transducers for measurements along any direction of the 3 spatial axes The 3 axis sensor series enables a simple and precise measurement of the three perpendicular components (xyz) of any arbitrarily directed dynamic or quasi-static force

bull Accurate measurement independent of the point of force application

bull Wide frequency rangebull Compact dimensionsbull Stainless sealed sensor casebull Rugged multipole plug connection

DescriptionThe output of the piezoelectric triaxial force sensors is an ex-tremely linear electrical charge over their entire measuring range This load is directly proportional to the applied force The sensor housing contains one quartz ring per force com-ponent and can be precisely aligned amp mounted due to its flattened sides The simple and vibration-resistant design of the sensor is ex-tremely stiff and with its uniquely high natural frequency en-ables the measurement of highly dynamic force processes With two ceramic discs on the contact surfaces a high coef-ficient of friction is guaranteed on the one hand and mass-insulated installation in the machine structure is possible on the other The magnitude of the measuring range of the shear forces in the x- and y-directions depends directly on the preload in the z direction and the resulting axial static frictionThe signals are picked up via the design-protected 3-pole con-nector plug V3 neg which uses a positioning aid to ensure the exact assignment of the connector pins and protects against twisting

Application3-component force sensors measurebull Cutting forces during machiningbull Impact forces in crash testsbull Recoil forces of rocket enginesbull Vibration forces of components for space travelbull Friction forcesbull Forces in product testingbull Ground reaction forces in biomechanicsbull Vehicle forces on a road and a test standbull Forces on a wind tunnel balance

Introduction of forceWhen only one force link is used then if at all possible the re-sulting force vector should run through the center of the sen-sor An eccentric introduction of force produces a moment load on the sensor This is allowed only up to the specified val-ues The maximum force ranges must be reduced accordingly A sufficiently rigid constructed dynamometer with four force links largely prevents moment loads on the sensor element Ordering key

Type 90x6C4Set of Four Matched Triaxial Force SensorsThe sets Type 90x6C4 consist of four selected sensors two of each Type 90x7C and 90x8C Jointly ground to the same height they are used for installation in multi-component dyna mometers and multi-component force plates The connectors of the four sensors are all directed inwards (see Fig 3)The four force sensors are selected so that they demonstrate optimum specifications with regard to constant sensitivity and minimal crosstalk when they are mounted in a dynamometer

Fig 7 Set of four matched trixial ring force transducer Type 90x6C4

Fig 6 Dimensions Type 9077C 9078C

MountingThe force sensor must be mounted under preload The shear forces Fx and Fy are transferred by friction from the base and cover plates to the surface of the sensorThe measuring ranges indicated in the technical data are valid for the standard preloadThe exact sensitivity of the preloaded sensors must be con-firmed by an on-site calibration

Fig 8 Generic example of a sensor mounting with preload Specific val-ues can be found in the manual

Triaxial load cellsAll triaxial ring force transducers are also available ready mounted as calibrated load cellforce link

Parallel ConnectionWhen a dynamometer is constructed the four sensors of Type 90x6C4 are connected mechanically in parallel The mea-suring signals (electric charge) of the four sensors can also be connected in parallel (summed) The summing box Type 5417 allows simple and reliable connection of the measuring signals for the desired type of multi-component force measurementThe summing box Type 5417 provides a simple and reliable connection of the measuring signals for either a pure force measurement with 3 output channels (Type 5417Q01) or a full dynamometer setting with 8 outputs that allows the calcu-lation of bending and tortional moments (Type 5417)

Fig 11 Summing box Type 5417

Measuring Signal ProcessingCharge amplifier channels are additionally required for the complete measuring system These convert the measuring sig-nal into a voltage The reading is exactly proportional to the force applied The multi-channel charge amplifier Type 5167A has been designed specifically for multi-component force measuring systems

Introduction of forceWhen only one force link is used then if at all possible the re-sulting force vector should run through the center of the sen-sor An eccentric introduction of force produces a moment load on the sensor This is allowed only up to the specified val-ues The maximum force ranges must be reduced accordingly A sufficiently rigid constructed dynamometer with four force links largely prevents moment loads on the sensor element Ordering key
