FMT Force Load Cell

Brand: American Sensor Technologies Inc
AST's washer load cell, model FMT, is designed to measure clamping and screwing forces. 

The sensor design reduces the hysteresis and sensitivity variations associated with torque generated by friction during tightening. The FMT has a high stiffness and can be used in static and dynamic applications.
