Medical Load Cell (How to Measure Hand Grip Strength?)
The LMD500 Medical Load Cell (Hand Gripper) offers a unique solution for Medical Applications. From its lightweight aluminum design, to its easy installation, the LMD500 Medical Load Cell (Hand Gripper) offers a great hand grip strength measurement system with impressive tolerances.
As a part of the custom engineered products, the Medical Load Cell can be embedded in digital hand dynamometer for grip strength measurement and captures the many capabilities FUTEK offers its customers. Similar to our entire Load Cell product line this model is manufactured in the US and uses metal foil strain gauge technology.
Product Highlights:
For those looking for a complete instrument to measure hand grip strength solution, FUTEK can provide both signal-conditioned displays or our VCal Portable System. FUTEK’s VCal Portable System brings an easy-to-use system verification directly to the customer making it ideal for on-site verification and calibration of your products. FUTEK LMD Series is also available with TEDS / IEEE1451.4 option.
