In a load cell the resistors are replaced with strain gauges and arranged in alternating tension and compression formation.
Load cell shear beam type.
Load cells from the best manufacturers around the world.
There are several types of strain gauge load cells.
Up to 10000 kgf application.
The beam type load cell family sometimes known as a bending load cell tend to be the most commonly used due to the variety of available options.
A universal load cell for bigger industrial applications.
Double ended shear beam double ended shear beam load cells are an excellent option for industrial applications such as floor scales and heavy duty weighing scales for trucks vessels and tanks.
Shear beam load cells single point load cells compression canister load cells s type load cells double ended beam load cells.
When force is exerted on the load cell the structure and resistance of the strain gauges changes and is measured.
Low profile floor scales tank hopper bag weighing force tension measurement pallet scale industrial automation 30310 ss stainless stell version is suitable for hygienic applications like food dairy pharma industries for corrosive applications like chemical industries.
Eagle double ended shear beam compression type concept in load cell design provides the following advantages over the conventional compression type load cells.
Available with 0 03 linearity in capacities from 100 to 30 000 lbf.
Often the mandatory basic components i e.
Beam load cells flintec s shear beam load cell range is ideally suited to all industrial weighing scale and general measurement applications.
From the resulting data can be easily determined using the equation above.
One end of the shear beam contains the mounting holes while the opposite end is where the cell is loaded.
The single ended shear beam is designed for low profile scale and process applications.
These beams have fixed ends on both sides allowing for loads to be applied on the center of the load cell.
Digital load cell are basically a combination of analog load cell and an analog to digital convertor mounted on the load cell itself.
Shear beam load cells in aluminium steel and stainless steel.
Spring element and strain gauge are complemented with additional elements housing sealing elements etc protecting the strain gauge elements.
Common types of load cells.
Single bending beam load cells.
The shear is measured close to the neutral line of the load cell what reduces the effects of transverse forces.
The load cell should be mounted on a flat smooth surface with high strength hardened bolts.
The simplest type of load cell is a bending beam with a strain gauge.
Stainless steel beam load cell with overload stops lc501.
Torque however influences the measuring result.
