The monitoring of industrial production processes ensures product quality and protects both the operator and machines. Here, special demands are placed on a measurement system to provide reliability, long-term trouble-free operation, minimal downtime and rapid availability.
Force measurement is used to monitor tablet pressing operations to ensure the correct dosage of
pharmaceuticals. With hundreds of press cycles per second, very high requirements are placed on measurement technology in terms of dynamics, robustness and precision.
Other press force monitoring applications include minting presses and large industrial presses. Here, high dynamics, real-time conditioning and connection to automation systems via standard interfaces also play
a decisive role.
