Strain gauge load sensors are the most commonly used among the three.
Small size load cell.
The inner working of a load cell differs based on the load cell that you choose.
Common types of load cells.
From the resulting data can be easily determined using the equation above.
See datasheet for available models additional capacities connectors options and accessories.
Features high output and high accuracy easy installation.
The cu series is supplied for nominal loads from 50 kg to 1 t.
Small in size and capable of providing highly accurate readings the lcfd series miniature load cells are precision subminiature load cells for industrial applications requiring a small size and high accuracy.
These load cells can output data in ascii format via a virtual com port at up to 150 hz and can go as high as 500 hz with a high speed upgrade.
There are several types of strain gauge load cells.
The cu range of load cells are designed for the measurement of static or dynamic loads in compression.
The iload flex flexible load cell is available in diameters as small as 0 1 and could be as low as just 0 1 in height.
Iload flex miniature load cells with analog and or digital readouts.
If our standard miniature load cell range is not suitable for your application type our team of highly skilled engineers can work with you to design a fully custom solution from sizes small enough to be categorized within a subminiature load cell classification.
When force is exerted on the load cell the structure and resistance of the strain gauges changes and is measured.
Model mtfs miniature tension load cell is a small sized tension load cell that is available in capacity ranges from 1 kn to 100 kn 224 8 to 22 5k lbf.
Within 0 5 ro for 5 kn to 10 kn within 1 ro for 20 kn to 50 kn.
They are all stainless steel measure both tension and compression loads and have male thread studs for load attachment.
All the transducers are calibrated as load cells in units of mass kg.
We have designed and manufactured a variety of sensors that can be used in applications where size height width or diameter are a limiting factor.
12 0 1mm 5 10 kn 16 0 1mm 20 kn 22 0 2mm 50 kn nonlinearity.
In a load cell the resistors are replaced with strain gauges and arranged in alternating tension and compression formation.
There are hydraulic load cells pneumatic load cells and strain gauge load cells.
A load cell works by converting mechanical force into digital values that the user can read and record.
