Custom & Special Models

Since 1988, FUTEK's in-house multidisciplinary engineering team has been engaged in hundreds of custom load cell design programs, ranging from aerospace mission-critical NASA programs to miniature surgical robot sensors. Our custom sensor design approach takes care of all phases of the project: from the early custom sensor design inputs, prototype / pilot run, design for manufacturability reviews (preliminary, critical, and final), high-volume production build phase all the way to the assembly and integration in the end-user final product/system.

Benefits of early engagement on OEM / Custom Load Cell projects:

• Save money and resources
• Enhance your application performance
• Optimize the mounting configuration
• Maximize ease of manufacturability

Our world-class electronics take your custom sensor performance to new heights. The earlier you engage with us on your next custom load cell design project, the more capabilities we can squeeze in, including:

• Ability to customize PEC geometry and interconnectivity
• Safety and fault detection features for maximum reliability
• System integration with in-situ calibration with sensor
• Design for low power consumption

You gain a lot of value by engaging early with us for your OEM applications. What happens when you engage late in the game?

• Constrained sensor geometry
• Limited mounting configurations
• Limited components procurement
• Expediting fee for POs
• Costly design changes

Custom Load Cells manufactured in the US by FUTEK Advanced Sensor Technology (FUTEK), a leading manufacturer producing a huge selection of Custom Force Sensors and Custom Torque Sensors, including space grade sensors, utilizing one of the most advanced technologies in the Sensor Industry: Metal foil strain gauge technology.
