By preloading your piezoelectric force sensors correctly you make sure to obtain the most accurate results – our expert Martin shows you how!

In this instruction video, Martin Betschart, Product Manager for Force Sensors at Kistler, explains the advantages of preloading a force sensor – and he leads you through the process of doing it step by step.

With correct preloading, you ensure maximum performance of your measuring element. This is recommended for every piezoelectric force transducer because of reduced linearity in the first 20% of the measuring range. If you want to measure tensile or negative forces, it is even more important to preload your sensor.

Martin will show you in detail which components you need – usually included as accessories – to preload your sensor, gives concrete hints and tells you how to deal with the entire measuring chain. Ready to get started preloading?
