Automation with integral force measuring technology

In addition to accuracy when measuring force, incorporating force measuring technology in modern automation systems is also a significant feature.

Due to the direct connection of the force sensor to the SIMATIC-integrated evaluation electronics, there is no need for costly, difficult-to-integrate external interface converters. In addition, the measuring accuracy of SIMATIC-based solutions is increased enormously, because only one A/D conversion takes place before the measured value is available in the automation system. These properties facilitate the integration of a final product test and other tests into the SIMATIC environment.
