Loadcell
A load cell is a transducer for the measurement of force or weight. It converts a load into an electrical signal.
Strain gauge load cells are an integral part of weighing systems. We source the best load cells in Australia for specific applications from a variety of local specialist suppliers and manufacturers.
Active Weighing will source the best load cells for specific applications from a variety of specialist suppliers.
A strain gauge load cell is a transducer which converts a measured force or weight to an electrical signal. Connected to a weighing indicator or controller, this information is used to report or control process operations.
These load cells vary in size, construction, and material, to deliver the needed sensitivity to weight, changes in weight and the maximum load handled.
Selecting the best load cell for an application depends upon multiple criteria including:
Other than this, we also offer belt weighers, fully automated bagging lines, bagging machines and more. To know more about our product and services, browse website or directly contact us at (03) 9873 7677
