In common terminology, a load cell is a device which converts a weight into an electrical signal. A more technical term would be a type of force transducer. In the broadest sense, a transducer converts energy from one format into another. Ideally, the transfer happens through the base of the load cell as force is … Continued
Weight measurement is critical in many areas of industry, health care, and research. Within the manufacturing industry, the product is often purchased by weight. The manufacturer needs to make sure that they are providing the correct amount of material. They also need to make sure that they know the shipping weight, both in terms of … Continued
Weighing applications are present in almost every industry. Load cells and scales are the predominant solution for these applications. What is a Load Cell? The term “load cell” is often used in the discussion of industrial scales or similar weighing devices. In the simplest sense, a load cell is a force transducer. A transducer is … 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
