Industries:
Truck & Railroad Scales
In cases of weighing loaded and unloaded trucks across our highways and railroads, our Double-ended Shear Beams (80210, 80310) are commonly used; providing long-lasting durability in rugged environments
90310 canister load cells provide an easy solution to retrofit in legacy equipment, and a higher degree of accuracy for truck scales
Packaging & Food Processing
Our economical “S” type load cells (20210) are utilized in tank weighing and scale conversions, in-line force measurement applications, and are ruggedized and sealed for use in washdown areas
Single Point Beams (60210, 60410, 60610, 61010) are used in high-speed checkweighers for conveyor belts (such as with the handling of food products), and provide a means to quickly process, register, and differentiate weights
Material Handling & Warehousing
20210 provides an economical, highly accurate load cell solution for measuring tension on forklift loads
Single-ended Beams (30310) are versatile load cells ideal for low-profile and platform scales, and are environmentally protected and sealed (nickel/chrome-plated) to assure resistance against corrosion
Agriculture
Single-ended Shear Beams (30310) provide an economical, accurate, and versatile load cell commonly utilized in livestock floor scales; providing highly diverse compatibility with existing equipment) and are sealed to protect against environmental conditions
30410 link-beam design provides moveable linkage to help reduce excessive side loads and reading errors
Used in combines and platform scales, our Single-point Load Cells (60410) provide an economical solution for combine platform applications
Tanks, Silos & Bulk Powder Processing
Our versatile 20210 are accurate, self-centering, and economical load cells used to measure products in tension applications for processing equipment (such as concrete aggregate, batching, and asphalt weighing)
Double-ended Beams (70210, 70310) are commonly used across this industry, as well as rugged areas where shock and overloading situations exist; Popularly used in retrofits and provide versatility in use under tanks, bins, hoppers, silos, mixers, centrifuges, and more
70210 and 70310 are made with high alloy tool steel for repeatability, are highly accurate to ensure precision, the gage areas are environmentally protected with a thick double waterproof seal and stainless steel plate, and are designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions
OEM & Scale Repair
Many styles of load cells are available including high-temperature compensated up to 400°F, for use in steel mills and hot asphalt applications
Several models also available in Stainless Steel for food-grade and pharmaceutical applications
Compatible Weigh Modules and Kits (Mounting Hardware) complement a variety of load cells which are ideal for new construction or scale repairs
Pancake Load Cells are available for low-profile/high-load capacity applications, while maintaining a minimal footprint for use in presses, roll-coaters, among other applications
Private labeling is available
University & Research Labs
Single-ended Bending Beams (40210, 50210) provide a low-profile solution for small capacity laboratory applications and testing pharmaceuticals (i.e. batching, mixing, etc.)
70510 load cells are ideal for centrifuge mixing and applications where vibration is present, among other laboratory and pharmaceutical applications
