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
- Canister Load Cells (90210) are built for rugged environments, can tolerate significant abuse
- 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
