Load Pin Load Cells

In a load cell the resistors are replaced with strain gauges and arranged in alternating tension and compression formation.

Load pin load cells.

There are several types of strain gauge load cells. It utilizes the internal strain gage process perfected by strainsert during the last forty years and used so successfully in strainsert bolts and flat load cells. Strainsert company west conshohocken pa 610 825 3310. They can be applied on clevis pin shackles loading cranes lifting fittings sprockets and pulley axles by replacing existing shear pins clevis bolts clevis pins shear axles and many other types of pinned joints to control or monitor reaction load on the pins.

Lcp load pin series are compact size load pins designed for tension and compression measurements. The load sensing clevis pin or bolt is a unique strain gage transducer developed by strainsert. The force sensing clevis pin offers percision force measurement by simply replacing existing shear pins clevis pins shear axles or many. Acells is located in southern california u s a.

Load cell central s load pin load cells are made exclusively out of stainless steel and are available with hermetic connectors making them perfect for any environment. From the resulting data can be easily determined using the equation above. For more than 20 years we have been awarded atex ex ia iic t4 and t6 or exd certification for our load pins and load cells. Acells also manufactures its own line of scales.

When force is exerted on the load cell the structure and resistance of the strain gauges changes and is measured. Load cell central has been building load pin load cells since 1985. Our load pins are available with a wide variety of options from submersible to custom outputs like 4 20ma 0 5vdc 0 10vdc 10vdc rs232 rs485 usb and more. Strainsert s status and response to covid 19.

Products load cells load pins load pins the lcm range of load pins are designed for the measurement of tensile and compressive forces across a wide range of applications including crane lifting industrial marine offshore and civil engineering. Our knowledge gained over the years enables us to manufacture load pins for nearly any application. Hazardous zone load pin available certifications. One of the most common load pin applications is to replace either the dead end of the wire rope or the equalizer sheave pin with a load pin load cell which is then paired with our ipe50 load cell controller.

Our load cells are manufactured with the highest attention to detail at all stages. Formerly known as amcells corp manufactures and supplies standard and custom load cells for the scale industry. Whether it is through the design stage engineering stage or through hundreds of tests run daily we ensure that our products outshine all competitor products.
