“…This calibration consisted in programming the IMADA force transducer, in order to apply forces between 0.1 N and 1.4 N on the lamellar springs, and the result can be read with the help of the Spider acquisition system and the software application "Catman-EASY, (figure 7) . The output signal of the tension / compression of the lamellar spring to be checked is acquired and transformed using the Spider system (5) .…”

The paper aims to design and develop force transducers for industrial environments to cover different values (ranges) of the measuring force. The calibration of the leaf springs was performed using two experimental methods. The first solution entitled (A) was to apply to the springs a force with a number of different calibrated weights. Based on the IMADA ZP500N and ZP5N force transducers and the "ZP Recorder" software application, the second calibration solution entitled (B), was developed by authors. The paper briefly presents the steps taken into account to obtain the force transducers. Processing of the leaf springs, cleaning the surfaces where the strain gauges are to be glued, protecting the strain gauges and finally gluing the terminals of strain gauges for connection to the Catman interface are presented. Calibration of force transducers was performed for different shapes of lamellar springs: rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal. The experimental results for each force transducer were processed using Matlab environment. The best behavior in terms of the characteristics of the transducers is the triangular lamellar spring transducer. Two materials were considered for the lamellar springs: steel and bronze. Depending on the force field to be measured, one material or another is chosen. An important requirement for the operation of these transducers is not to exceed the range of forces for which it was designed.

“…Therefore, the strain gauge-based transducers are the best option for both high-scale industrial processes and more simple tasks, especially when it comes to high precision measurements. These features truly justify the widespread use of this kind of sensor in fields ranging from the healthcare sector [ 9 , 10 , 11 ] to the industrial sector [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ] and civil engineering [ 16 ], among others.…”

Chalcographic printer is the name given to a specific type of press which is used to transfer the printing of a metal-based engraved plate onto paper. The printing system consists of two rollers for pressing and carrying a metal plate onto which an engraved inked plate is placed. When the driving mechanism is operated, the pressure exerted by the rollers, also called contact pressure, allows the engraved image to be transferred into paper, thereby obtaining the final image. With the aim of ensuring the quality of the result, in terms of good and even transfer of ink, the contact pressure must be uniform. Nowadays, the strategies utilized to measure the pressure are implemented off-line, i.e., when the press machines are shut down for maintenance, which poses limitations. This paper proposes a novel sensor system aimed at monitoring the pressure exerted by the rollers on the engraved plate while chalcographic printer is operating, i.e., on-line. The purpose is two-fold: firstly, real-time monitoring reduces the number of breakdown repairs required, reduces machine downtime and reduces the number of low-quality engravings, which increases productivity and revenues; and secondly, the on-line monitoring and register of the process parameters allows the printing process to be reproducible even with changes in the environmental conditions or other factors such as the wear of the parts that constitute the mechanical system and a change in the dimensions of the printing materials. The proposed system consists of a strain gauge-based load cell and conditioning electronics to sense and treat the signals.
