SM-LC3 – Miniature 3-Axis Force Sensor

The SM-LC3 is a miniature multi-axis force sensor designed for precise force measurement along three orthogonal axes (Fx, Fy, and Fz). Utilizing strain gauge technology with three independent Wheatstone full-bridge circuits, it enables the simultaneous measurement of tension and compression forces on each axis without the need for complex vector calculations.

Its compact design allows easy integration into space-constrained environments while maintaining high measurement accuracy and low cross-talk between axes. Available in a wide range of capacities, the SM-LC3 is suitable for numerous industrial, scientific, and medical applications requiring reliable three-dimensional force monitoring.

Depending on the version, the sensor can be manufactured from anodized aluminum or stainless steel, providing the optimal balance between lightweight construction, mechanical strength, and corrosion resistance. Output signals can be provided in mV/V or conditioned to standard industrial outputs such as 0–5 V, 0–10 V, or 4–20 mA through a multi-channel amplifier.
