Load Cell Weighing System Design
The load cell itself is a transducer that is used to convert force into an electrical signal.
Load cell weighing system design. Following this guideline can improve the overall accuracy of the weighing device. Our experienced engineering and design staff create the most comprehensive line of load cells and weigh modules available. Over time load cells will drift age and misalign. When designing the system and selecting the load cells it is preferable for all the load cells to be subject to loads of the same magnitude.
Load cell designs can be distinguished according to the type of output signal generated pneumatic hydraulic electric or according to the way they detect weight bending shear compression tension etc. We also are equipped to repair virtually any load cell regardless of capacity or manufacturer including obsolete cells. Environmentally protected load cells are designed for normal environments in indoor or protected outdoor weighing applications. Load cells are an integral part of most weighing systems in industrial aerospace and automotive industries enduring rigorous daily use.
We design and supply custom load cells and provide support for all types of applications. Often for a fraction of the cost of a new unit. A load cell or loadcell is a highly accurate device that is used to measure weight or force in compression tension bending or shear. We design and manufacture a large variety of load cells weighbars truck scales axle scales axle pads animal scales floor scales bench scales custom weighing kiosks and sanitation systems.
Weighing and force measurement is our specialty. With over 20 years of experience load cell systems can help re sellers oem customers and end users choose the correct load cells for their individual needs. Therefore they will need to be calibrated regularly to ensure accurate results are maintained. In addition to custom weighing solutions we are able to provide off the shelf load cells and we maintain a plentiful stock of many manufacturers standard cells.
We design and develop custom software solutions for unique weighing systems based on our customers specific needs. The supports with load cells should have greater loads than the supports without load cells. Tension load cells lcm systems offer a range of tension load cells designed to measure tensile loads. Potted load cells utilize one of several types of industrial po tting materials.
The types of tension load cells available include s beams columns low profile shackle and link type load cells. These load cells may employ strategies like potting rubber booting or redundant sealing to offer some protection from moisture.
