Capacitive load cells are built on the principal of a change in capacitance when a force is applied on the load cell. Capacitance is the ability of a system to store a charge. If a capacitor is built using the classic parallel plate approach then its ability to store a charge is directly proportiona Read More
How to protect load cells from overloading?If you want to keep the accuracy of a load cell, the measurement for each time should not surpass the maximum capacity. Using the load cell according to the IFU and do not measure things that are overweight. A little over-dimension may destroy the accuracy. Read More
When your application needs to measure static or quasi-static loads, forces or weights, you would need to use a load cell. A load cell is a device that converts the applied force into an electronic signal that can be used to compute the magnitude of the force applied. Although relatively simple in c Read More
Sensors are devices (usually electro-mechanical) which help us measure a physical parameter (such as temperature, pressure, force, acceleration etc.) by providing a signal that either quantitatively measures (level) that physical parameter or provides a simple binary signal that indicates a yes/no s Read More
Our single ended beams are available in alloy, stainless and stainless steel welded versions. Our shear beams are very common and used in a number of applications. Read More
DesigningDepending on the application the type (bending beam, column, shear beam, etc.) is decided. Load range and the output are important factors to consider while deciding the material to be used. While aluminum is used for lower load ranges steel is preferred for higher loads. For weigh scale ap Read More
Before strain gage-based load cells became the method of choice for industrial weighing applications, mechanical lever scales were widely used. Mechanical scales can weigh everything from pills to railroad cars and can do so accurately and reliably if they are properly calibrated and maintained. The Read More
Ambient Conditions The conditions (humidity, pressure, temperature, etc.) of the medium surrounding the load cell. Ambient Temperature The temperature of the medium surrounding the load cell. Angular Load Eccentric A load applied eccentric with the primary axis at the point of application and at som Read More
How to judge the fault of weighing load cell? Fault Phenomenon Fault judgment Judge method Date drift Damaged cable. False welding, poor contact. Bad insulation. Check the exposed cable of load cell. Check the input/output resistance, whether is normal/stable or not: Read More
