Faulty load cells can mess with your readings during the weighing process. Since they bear the burden of delivering on precision and accuracy, sudden problems can interfere with your daily business operations. That’s why it’s good to know the signs of faulty load cells, as well as common problems and solutions. We go through some … Continued
What are Digital Load Cells? Let’s start with Analog Load Cells Traditionally, most industrial scales are equipped with analog strain gauge load cells. Analog strain gauge load cells are simple, passive devices that are generally robust and easy to use. Besides the small resistor bridge on the load cell surface, and a number of temperature … Continued
Industrial scales use load cells to convert various forces from weighing objects into measurable electrical signals. Placing an object on a platform can generate tension, compression, bending, shear, torque, or pressure. These are mechanical forces. The cell then converts them into electrical signals. Various load cells can serve particular applications, depending on the environment and … Continued
Load cell creep is perfectly natural in load cells. It is the change of the cell’s output in real-time while it is weighing an object. This happens under constant load conditions and assuming the time period is long. These refer to when a weight does not change during a period of time. If the weight … Continued
Compression load cells use a specific force that converts into output signals for measurement. They are essentially a block that feel a push rather than a pull. Many load cells have strain gauges that react to tension, compression, torque, and other forces applied to them. Tension is a force that pulls on the strain gauge … Continued
Load cell drift can prove to be a potential setback for measuring. It is often hard to detect if a person lacks the means to test for significant voltage changes. With that said, we know potential causes for load cell drift and how a person can identify them. Drift can cause your load cell to … Continued
Until recently, people that purchased scales were faced with an important decision. Did they want a scale that gave them a very fine resolution? Or did they want a scale that had a high capacity? You couldn’t have both because the heavier the load, the less precision a standard load cell could deliver. However, at … Continued

And we can customize them in-house in our own factory. Made in the U.S.A. Benefits of Accurate Measurements in Agriculture By taking … Continued
Load cells are transducers that convert mechanical energy into electrical signals. This mechanical energy tends to be a force like pressure, tension, compression, or torque. In short, these devices assist when weight provides any of these forces. Load cells can either be used in strain gauges, hydraulics, and pneumatics. At Arlyn Scales, we tend to … Continued
When it comes to mixing industrial and automotive paints, precision is the key to quality reproduction and accurate colorations. The stakes of strong manufacturing practices in this context are extremely visible, and no contractor, painting company, hardware store or individual will accept a mismatched color when they are expecting a duplicate of a former coat. … Continued
