The LCKD Subminiature Button Compression Load Cell is designed for precision force measurement in environments where space is at a premium. Its ultra-compact, button-style form factor allows for seamless integration into tight assemblies without compromising accuracy or durability. Constructed entirely of stainless steel, it provides exceptional resistance to corrosion and physical wear, making it suitable for both laboratory and industrial applications.

Capable of handling a wide range of compression forces—from 1 Kg to 1,000 pounds—the LCKD delivers reliable results in both dynamic and static loading scenarios. The unit is hermetically sealed to protect internal components from moisture and contaminants, ensuring stable performance even in harsh operating conditions. With its factory-integrated cable and minimal deflection characteristics, installation is straightforward and output is consistent.

The LCKD is a trusted choice for force measurement in robotics, medical device testing, aerospace validation, and OEM system integration. Whether embedded in a production tool or used in a test setup, this load cell balances performance, footprint, and ruggedness to meet demanding requirements.

The LCKD is also available in metric configurations, with ranges from 0-10 to 0-5,000 N. Please see the LCMKD in related items below for complete details, or contact our Pressure department for more information..

What is the resolution of the LCKD series and LMCKD series? What is the accuracy of the sensors?

Asked by: Esau
Combined accuracy of the LCKD/LCMKD Series load cell is 0.37% of the full scale range. Resolution depends on the how small of a signal change the instrumentation you are using to read the output signal can detect.
