Introduction
The Mecmesin BGF series push pull force gauges use a precision force transducer to measure the compressive and tensile forces applied to the force probe. The unit displays real time force data on the LCD screen in any of the common force units - lbs kgf or N. The BFG includes all the basic features needed for routine force measurement in many common applications. The instruments includes a bidirectional data link and mitutoyu compatible data output.

Applications
Inspection and testing of all kinds of precision parts and mechanisms including relay contacts, and switches
Strength testing for components and assemblies such as wire harness
Connection testing measure the pull out and insertion force of all kinds of connectors and fitted components.

Test Stands
A range of motorized test stands permit more accurate and repeatable measurements.
