In this paper, retrospective investigation of different types of force transducers, used in different applications (metrological, industrial, scientific etc.) for force measurement, has been done. The paper discusses the complete classification of force transducers based on shape, display and applications. Various types of force transducer have been discussed in the paper including symmetrical, unsymmetrical and alteration types. An attempt has been made to provide a comprehensive investigation related to metrological aspects of force transducer
