Piezoelectric or strain gauge technology? HBM weighs up the options

When it comes to deciding which force sensor is the right one for your application, HBM – a market leader in the field of test and measurement has the answer in its Piezoelectric or Strain Gauge Technology webinar, which takes place on 23 February 2018 at 9am (GMT).

With strain based load cells and piezoelectric sensors being the most widely used technology for force measurement, selecting the right sensor for your application is crucial.

In this short but informative webinar, participants are invited to find out more about the functional principle of both types of sensor.  Looking at how force sensors and load cells perform, ‘Strain Gauge Load Cells and Piezoelectric Force Sensors: When to Use Which Technology’ weighs up some of the advantages and limitations associated with applying both technologies and offers advice on which technology is best suited to the task in hand.

Presented by Thomas Kleckers, Product Manager of HBM Force Measurement Technology, this informative seminar is free and has been designed to fit in with challenging time constraints, which can often make attending relevant training courses difficult.

Lasting for 30 minutes, ‘Strain Gauge Load Cells and Piezoelectric Force Sensors’  is the latest webinar available from the HBM Academy, can also be easily accessed at a later date or simply used as a refresher course.  As an added benefit, all registered participants will receive a link to the webinar, via email, after the presentation.  All HBM webinars are free of charge and open to anyone, regardless of experience.  However, spaces are limited and are available on a first come, first served basis.  Please reserve your spot by booking at http://bit.ly/2rxwfO1

The HBM Academy trainers have a wealth of knowledge in all aspects of data acquisition, strain gauge measurement and analysis of measurement data and have been successfully training engineers worldwide for many years.
