Accurate braking force measurement is essential in the automotive industry to ensure both safety and optimal braking performance during vehicle production and testing. The braking system is one of the most critical safety components in any car, and evaluating its performance under realistic operating conditions is a necessary step for quality assurance. To achieve this, Forsentek offers a dedicated pedal load cell designed specifically for braking force testing, delivering a reliable and efficient solution for manufacturers and testing facilities.

The Forsentek pedal load cell is engineered with a compact structure that makes it easy to mount directly onto a vehicle’s brake pedal without interfering with its operation. Its low off-center error design ensures that measurement results remain consistent and accurate, even when the force is not applied perfectly in line with the sensor. Built with high-accuracy strain gauge technology, this transducer provides precise and repeatable results, making it highly suitable for both laboratory testing and production line applications.

To meet diverse testing requirements, Forsentek also provides customization options, enabling the pedal load cell to be tailored to specific customer needs, whether in terms of size, capacity, or output signal. For easy integration, the system can be paired with a digital indicator, which not only provides direct readouts but also supports analog outputs such as 4-20mA or 0-10V, proportional to the applied force. In addition, RS232 and RS485 communication interfaces are available for seamless data acquisition and connection to control systems.

With its durability, precision, and user-friendly design, the Forsentek pedal load cell is the ideal tool for braking force testing in automotive applications. It helps engineers validate braking performance, optimize braking systems, and ensure every vehicle meets stringent safety standards before leaving the production line.
