R&D News: New MSS Sensor Dedicated for Torque Magnetometry under Development

In a recent blogpost we shared the news that NANOSENSORSTM Membrane-type Surface-stress Sensors (MSS) could successfully be used for torque magnetometry .

We have therefore decided to develop a new MSS series sensor chip that is dedicated to measure force and torque.
The new sensor chip will be called SD-MSS-1KTM and is currently in the beta testing phase.

The new sensor chip shares the common MSS features, i.e., a membrane (or platform) supported with four beams on which piezoresistors are embedded at the fixed ends.

In the newly developed sensor chip dedicated for torque magnetometry however, those sensing beams are much longer than those of the currently available MSS chips and form “bending” and “torsional” axes.

Further technical information will be announced upon an official product release. For any other questions or requests please contact us at info@nanosensors.com
