FUTEK Advanced Sensor Technology Inc. has an in house engineering and manufacturing team.
Hence, we can modify any of our standard products (load cells, torque sensors, force sensors, pressure sensors, and instruments)
or design a completely new model to meet your custom needs.
Our team can help you meet your requirements for any test stand,
process control application or low cost OEM requirements no matter what industry you’re in. If you’ve referred to the
appropriate section of our product and services to see if any of our standard products 
meet your needs, submit a custom quote
with the details of your project and needs and we will gladly find a solution for you.
Custom Load Cells and Force Sensors:
Load and Force sensors are used in variety of products to monitor changes or provide feed back for further action.
FUTEK’s force sensor series are designed to fit customer assembly utilizing mounting components. This series is widely used in
OEM applications in which an economical target price in high quantity is required. Many standard models are available.
Various Load and Force Sensor features / types include:
- planner beam
- fold back bending beam
- fixed and guided beam
- parallelogram
- single point
- Archimedean balance design
- flat plate
- thin diaphragm
- very thin beam for low profile and compact assemblies
- low force measurement
- various mounting options
- Canister load cells
- Tension & compression S-beam type with overload protection
- Universal Pancake load cell
- Threaded rod
- Load link
- Donut / thru hole in variety of Outside & Inside diameter and capacities
- Load Washer to fit standard bolts
- Rod end load cell
- Miniature / subminiature
- High / low capacity load cell
- Multi-component / multi-axis
- Probe
- In-line load cell
- Fatigue rated load cell for endurance testing
Some of the more common requests / modifications consist of: changes in operating temperature, changes in capacity, submergible capability, and cryogenic capability.
Custom Pressure Sensors:
FUTEK offers a wide selection of miniature pressure sensors ranging from 1 Bar to 36Kpsi with female / male thread and flush mount / semi flush mount. Typical characteristics of FUTEK’s strain gage or thin film based pressure sensors include:
- Stainless steel construction or Titanium for durability
- Titanium construction for ultra lightweight
- Lightweight to ultra-lightweight designs
- Miniature flush mount option
- Optimal long term stability
- Great handling capabilities
- Flame resistant designs
- Quick disconnect
- Pig tail cable

- Digital or canbus output
All these characteristics can be modified to create a sensor that fits your specific needs.
Custom Torque Sensors:
The wide selection of standard reaction torque sensors include flange to flange, shaft to shaft, female drive to male drive, flange to male drive. FUTEK also offers a full line of rotary torque sensors available in slip ring type as well as Non-contact. The Rotary line comes with or without angle or speed encoder and is available in 3 different styles Shaft to Shaft, Square Drive and Hex Drive. Other choices include special reaction torque sensors such as the screw driver, torque wrench, and torque extension.
Typical characteristics of FUTEK’s strain gage based torque sensors include:
- Highest accuracy
- Robust construction
- Low profile compact
- Submersible
- Plethora of mounting options
- High frequency response w/ mechanically stiff design
- Analog output 5, 10VDC or 4-20mA
- Digital output
If any of these characteristics need to be changed, we can create a custom torque sensor designed for your particular project.
