Load pins: Redundancy and safety
Markus Heidl | Know-howA load pin connects the force-transmitting machinery elements and at the same time enables the measurement of the force. In addition to the general detection of static or dynamic forces by the load pins, the safety that can be ensured by various systems also plays an …
Load pins: Definition and application areas
Markus Heidl | Force, Know-howA load pin provides the connection between force-transmitting machine elements and also allows the simultaneous measurement of the force acting on the sensor. The load pins are fixed in the axial direction as well as against rotation. A small gap of about one fifth of …
