Pali mitundu yambiri ya ma sensor amphamvu, omwe amatha kugawidwa m'masensa amagetsi, ma sensor osiyanitsa komanso ma sensor absolute pressure molingana ndi mtundu wa kuthamanga kwa mayeso. Pakati pawo, chojambulira cholemetsa cholemetsa chimagwiritsidwa ntchito kwambiri pamayendedwe chifukwa chimatha kupirira kupanikizika kwakukulu, monga kuyang'anira kusintha kwamphamvu kwa machitidwe akuluakulu monga pneumatic, light-load hydraulic, brake pressure, etc. ntchito mfundo za mphamvu masensa, kuphatikizapo piezoresistive, piezoelectric ndi capacitive. Mfundo iliyonse ili ndi ubwino wake wapadera komanso kuchuluka kwake kwa ntchito, monga piezoresistive sensors poyesa kusintha kwa mtengo wotsutsa kuti adziwe kupanikizika, pamene masensa a piezoelectric amagwiritsa ntchito piezoelectric effect kuti apange magetsi.
