IP68 Biaxial Load Cell | Waterproof 2-axis Force Sensor
The IP68 2-axis force sensor LCM2W is a state-of-the-art measurement solution designed for applications that require precise force detection in two perpendicular directions (Fx and Fy). With its advanced biaxial design, this sensor delivers exceptional accuracy and reliability, making it an indispensable tool for engineers, researchers, and system integrators working in demanding environments.
Built with hermetically sealed construction and rated IP68, the LCM2W is fully protected against dust ingress and can withstand prolonged immersion in water. This rugged protection makes it ideal for use in harsh industrial environments, outdoor setups, and underwater testing scenarios where other sensors may fail. To ensure uncompromised performance, the sensor underwent a 0.2Mpa water pressure test during its research and development phase, verifying that its sealing integrity can endure extreme conditions without performance degradation.
Every unit is delivered with an in-house test report, which confirms compliance with the specifications listed in the official datasheet. This level of verification provides customers with peace of mind, knowing they are investing in a force sensor that has been rigorously tested for stability, accuracy, and long-term durability.
The LCM2W is available in three rated capacities—30kg, 50kg, and 100kg—covering both the Fx and Fy axes. Its flange-to-flange mounting structure allows for quick installation while ensuring secure and precise alignment, which is critical for accurate force measurements. Where this sensor truly stands out is in its adaptability. While the standard models cover a wide range of measurement needs, the LCM2W can also be customized from as little as one piece, giving customers the ability to order a tailored solution that meets unique requirements in testing, integration, or research projects.
Applications of the LCM2W include:
- Underwater Robotics Force Testing – providing accurate force measurement for robotic manipulators, grippers, and submersible systems operating in aquatic environments.
- Waterproof Industrial Automation Systems – enabling precise load control and monitoring in production lines exposed to moisture, sprays, or washdown processes.
- Biomechanics Experiments in Aquatic Environments – supporting advanced research in movement analysis, resistance studies, and hydrodynamic performance testing.
With its IP68 waterproofing, biaxial measurement capability, and proven reliability, the LCM2W is more than just a load cell—it is a dependable solution for challenging applications where precision and durability are critical. Whether deployed in underwater robotics, automated manufacturing, or biomechanics research, this sensor ensures consistent and trustworthy results, making it an excellent choice for professionals who demand the highest level of performance in force measurement technology.
