Various Kinds of Load Cells along with their Usage

Load cells come in a variety of capacities, shapes, and sizes. They have become an industry standard for all kinds of weighing. Searching for the right kind of load cell could be like searching for a needle in a haystack. You have to search for the right load cell to suit your requirements and applications.
Single point load cell is the most common and the cheapest kind of cell available in the market. Due to their reliability and price, these can be found in retail scales, medical scales, postal scales, counting scales, and parcel scales. These provide accurate reading regardless how the load is kept on the scale. Canister type load cells have been in the market for a long time. They are used for high capacity compression applications. It can be used for multiple or single weighing applications. It has a button on the top and on the bottom part. It can be used for compression case only. These can be used in vessel weighing applications, tank scales, truck weighing, axle weighing scales, and weighbridges. They provide accurate readings even in harsh environments. The double ended shear beam offers an array of benefits over other designs. They can be used for medium to high range applications. It is also available in the market as weighing module equipment. It has the capability to rock on its mounting and hold misalignment in mounting surfaces while still being maintained.
Single ended shear beam load cell is common in all kinds of shipping, floor, and platform scales. They provide an ideal solution to maximum medium capacity weighing applications. They have the capability to endure full capacity load without any complication. They are perfect for weighing systems with blenders, mixers, and agitators. It can also be made available in weighing module equipment. Tension link are apt for applications such as lifting systems, crane weighing scales, winching, and hanging scales. They offer accurate readings even at high capacity weighing. They have openings at both ends to allow easy connections for D links, wire ropes, shackles, or other kind of rigging. Torsion rings offer a new design concept ideal for a variety of weighing applications. These are loaded via centrally located annular ring. It is versatile and offer great solution to both platform scales and weighing applications. Weighing modules comprises of load cell with mounting equipment. You can also make use of wireless load cells that are available in the market today. However, they are expensive as technology comes with a price.

Let us know about types of load cells

Load cells are available in a variety of shapes, sizes as well as capacities. They have pretty quickly gone on to become the industry standards for almost all types of weighing. However, it is the wide range of options available that can make the task of choosing the right load cell a challenging one. Through this article, therefore, you are going to be introduced you to some of the important types along with their uses. So let us get started.
i.    Single Point: These are easily the most popular as well as the cheapest load cells available in the market these days. It is because of their price and reliability that they have become the preferred choice for manufacturing of retail scales, counting scales, medical scales, etc. One can also use them in industry weighing systems.
ii.    Canister Type: This is the preferred choice for manufacturing units looking for high capacity, compression applications. They are used for both single and multiple weighing applications. You can find them installed in various weighing machines such as tank scales, vessel weighing applications, truck weighing and weighbridges among others. One of their biggest advantages is that they provide accurate readings even under harsh circumstances.
iii.    Double ended shear beam: This is yet another type of load cells which is used for medium and high capacity applications. You can also find them pretty easily as a weighing module kit.
iv.    Tension Tank: If you are manufacturing weighing machines such as hanging scales, crane weighing and lifting systems, then such a load cell will prove to be an ideal option for you.

Ron 2000 Shackle Type Dynamometer

Dynamometers are used for weighing during lifting, overload prevention, and load measuring, load control and load monitoring. The Ron 2000 Shackle Type belongs to the family of Ron Dynamometers which are one of the most successful brands in the global markets from the last 30 years. It is a dream product for those who are in the search of the smallest and lightest portable Dynamometer. It is necessary for a
Nowadays many dynamometers claim to have maximum portability and minimum headroom loss for any application. But claiming is not enough. What is required is the strength to come out strong on these grounds. Being equipped with a miniature load cell Ron 2000 digital dynamometer is known to provide maximum portability and minimum headroom loss for any application. It also gives room to the improved safety and accuracy and at the same time sound structure proves to be a strong resistance which acts to cancel the external moments. Ron 2000 has a hand held indicator. A user can note the reading from a safe distance. Hand held indicator dynamometers are durable and lasts for long time.
dynamometer to show accurate reliable readings as their main task is to measure weight, force, tension and load control.  The Ron 2000 portable Dynamometer stands firm at the accuracy grounds. It is considered to be the most reliable tension load meter. It is quite simple to use. The user friendly process and features makes it the hot favorite in the dynamometer industry.  They are supplied with a test certificate.
