Cylinders and pneumatic actuators are widely used in factory automation systems. This includes manufacturing, material handling, process control, packaging, etc., used for locating or moving parts or tools, as well as performing "pick and place" or workpiece clamping tasks. Some applications require more precise thrust control. The F12L series force sensor can be installed at the bottom of the cylinder and actuator to monitor the thrust of the cylinder in real time. The sensor can provide feedback force signals to relays or controllers to control the inlet and outlet of the cylinder for thrust control. The size and measurement range of the thrust sensor can be customized according to requirements to meet the thrust measurement needs of different specifications of cylinders.
