Kavlico force transducers consist of precisely machined spring and internally placed LVDT(s). The compression or tension movement of the spring deflects the LVDT. The voltage output and signal is calibrated to correspond to the force input. Force sensors can be supplied as single or multiple channel devices. All Kavlico force transducer are custom designed for the load and performance requirements of each aircraft platform. As the world’s largest supplier of aircraft force transducers, Kavlico force transducers are used in a multitude of commercial and military aircraft applications.
