Force measuring system FMS for guide roller type SFRS
Force measuring system FMS for guide roller type SFRS
Introducing the FMS (Force Measuring System) for guide roller systems SFRS-SW/DW-3 — an advanced monitoring solution developed for modern crane and rail-guiding applications where operational safety, predictive maintenance, and real-time condition monitoring are essential.
The FMS system enables continuous live measurement of horizontal forces acting on crane guide rollers, helping operators detect rail misalignment, excessive loads, and wear conditions before critical failures occur.
Features & Technical Advantages:
- Permanent live measurement of horizontal forces during operation
- Precise conversion of mechanical loads into standardized 4–20 mA output signals
- Real-time condition monitoring and load evaluation
- Measurement data can be directly processed in the crane PLC system
- Early detection of rail system wear and misalignment
- Helps reduce unexpected crane downtime and maintenance costs
- Factory-calibrated under realistic installation conditions for high measurement accuracy
- Robust industrial-grade sensor technology for harsh operating environments
- Available in left-hand and right-hand versions
- Easy retrofit solution for existing guide roller systems
- Option to replace the complete guide roller or retrofit only the sensor bar
Designed for Heavy-Duty Crane Applications
The FMS system is ideally suited for:
- Port cranes
- Container handling equipment
- Industrial crane systems
- Rail-guided machinery
- Heavy-duty material handling applications
By enabling predictive maintenance and continuous force monitoring, the FMS system improves crane reliability, operational safety, and long-term equipment performance.
