The measurement of absolute forces in kN is often needed to protect machines from overloading. Usually, so-called strain sensors are mounted on the machine body to detect the elongation of the machine bed under load. Reference sensors are used to calibrate the measuring chains in the machine.

The absolute forces of the individual sensors, the total force and the limits set for overload are clearly displayed in a machine graphic. On request, the signals of the strain sensors can be additionally monitored with the sensitive envelope technology. In addition to the normal sensors that are placed close to the tools, up to 4 strain sensors can be connected optionally.

• overload protection, also in setup mode
• help with repeatable setup
• display of the current machine load
• avoids overloads
• on request also with logging of overload situations
