What are miniature force sensors?
Miniature load cells and miniature force sensors are compact of size and usually use semiconductor strain gauges as the sensing element. They are available in many different configurations for both tension and compression force directions. As a designer and manufacturer of millions of straingages and miniature sensors Zemic has developed itself as a specialist of custom made miniature sensors. Zemic offers miniature sensors from 20 grams up to 150 kg each and they can be found in many weigh applications, like e-bikes and medical incubators.
Miniature load cells are mostly used in compact and portable applications.
The use of these sensors requires less space and the sensors give high accuracy
For example:
- Pharmaceutical scales
- Portable luggage scales
- Testing applications
As manufacturer Zemic Europe has the ability to produce special custom made sensors that fit perfectly in the customers application.
Miniature force sensors characteristics
Zemic miniature force sensors offer good performance with high outputs and high overload capability for protection.
- Capacities: 20 gram – 150 kg
- Combined error upto 0.02% (FS)
- 21 families of sensors. 
We offer various kinds of miniature sensors. Most of the miniature sensors are made of aluminium. Miniature sensors are often seen in kitchen scales, postal scales, personal scales and internet of things solutions. Also miniature sensors are often integrated in specific applications where space is limited and a high accuracy is asked for.
Due to the limited space in a machine or the special mounting requirements it is a continuous challenge to develop a tailor-made fit for our customers. Zemic has a specially equipped miniature sensor department, for the design, sampling and production of your custom made miniature sensor. We have the production facility to accommodate small batches of sample pieces or to mass produce millions of miniature sensors.
