FORCE / TORQUE gauge MODEL BGI

The BGI Force / Torque Gauge is a unique product that is designed for working with interchangeable remote force and torque sensors. These sensors cover a variety of force measurement and torque measurement applications and are available in a broad range of capacities. No calibration or setup is required - simply plug and play.

Use MESURgauge Analysis Software to tabulate, graph, and analyze test data (more info)
