Calibration of 6A Force/Torque Sensors

Calibrating a 6A force/torque sensor under partial load demonstrates the accuracy of the sensor in its actual operating range.

Calibration with a maximum force of only 10% of the rated force is perfectly possible and advisable. Likewise, it may be recommended to perform calibration with a maximum of only 10% of the rated torque.

Since a calibration “SL/4” with 4 load levels is performed, for example with (0%), 10%, 50%, 100% of the maximum calibration load, the load level “10%” of the maximum calibration load corresponds to only 1% of the nominal load of the sensor.
