Various load cell types are preferred, relative to the needs of the laboratory or operational environment. Strain gage load cells are accurate within 0.03 to 0.25%. Used for experimental stress ...

Multi-axis wireless load cells and digital technology have changed the face of force sensors. Until about 10 years ago, the force test and measurement industry had been fairly unimaginative. It had ...

Our old algebra teacher used to say, “You have to take what you know and use it to get what you don’t know.” That saying always reminds of us sensors that convert physical quantities into things our ...

Most load cells on the market use a cantilever outfitted with strain gages to measure loads. Such cells also need a bulky and expensive signal conditioner to make them useful. Engineers at Loadstar ...
