A must-have component in lifting machinery, the anti-two block limit switch helps the operator protect equipment, loads, and personnel by preventing the hook block from colliding with the boom. WIKA Mobile Control manufactures the iSENS HES limit switch that is ideal …
Working machines like mobile cranes are designed to hoist and move heavy loads. Despite their sturdiness, cranes do have an upper limit of how much weight they can handle. That’s where force measurement comes in. For cranes without hydraulics, tension links measure …
In mobile working machines, overload conditions – especially on the booms of cranes, hoists, and lifts – can result in serious safety and operational problems. Force measuring instruments, such as WIKA’s F53 series of thin-film load pins, can help save time, …
Of course, hydroelectric power plants need to keep an eye on flow, level, temperature, and pressure. But don't forget about force, a key measurement as reservoirs are surrounded by rock and earth. There's also the matter of instrument calibration, an essential aspect …
A transformation is currently taking place: Linear drives are taking the place of pneumatic and hydraulic drives, and there is no longer any scope for measuring pressure. However, WIKA has another solution: force measurement. Electrical propulsion technology is …
