The micro rod end sensor LCM100 is the smallest inline male threaded solution in FUTEK’s catalogue. Measuring just 0.37” (9.5mm) in diameter and 0.17” (4.3mm) in height, this micro diaphragm solution utilizes versatile M3 male thread mounting provisions to provide an ultra fast response in both tension and compression loading with a capacity range of 2.2 - 25lbs (1 to 11kg).
The LCM100 is particularly well suited for inline applications with size constraints, such as surgical robotics, as it adds minimal increase in outer diameter or height to the assembly. The model is offered with two cable types, one is a malleable braided cable that is designed to be stable, the other is a jacketed cable that is designed for flex.
