It is common to use force transducers in the railway sector, where they are generally used during maintenance operations:

  • Measurement of the force needed to activate points
  • Measurement of the force exerted by doors when they are closed
  • Measurement of the force required to actuate the door-opening button
  • Weighing axle trees
  • Measurement of the force exerted by the brake linings
  • Measurement of the force exerted at the catenary level
  • Load limitation on crane or railway platform
  • Etc.
