History
Gigasense was founded in 1951 under the name PIAB. At that time, the company marketed its products under the PIAB brand, including the well‑known PIAB dynamometer.
In 2008, the company changed its name from PIAB Sverige AB to Gigasense AB, in connection with the introduction of Gigasense anti‑collision solutions.
In 2012, Gigasense acquired Friborg Test Technology AB.
This business is no longer part of Gigasense, and the company today is fully focused on force measurement and crane safety.
