• Description : From simple bathroom scales to huge ship-to-shore cranes, various weighing techniques rely on weighing transducers

Overview

• 　　Different situations require different weight measurement methods. To choose the right weighing transducer for a specific application, users should consider three factors: the environment, location, and the load itself.

  　　From simple bathroom scales to huge ship-to-shore cranes, various weighing techniques rely on weighing transducers. These force sensors convert compression, pressure, tension, or torque into electrical signals and are used in many applications:

  　　Food and beverages: filling machines, packaging units, price labeling machines

  　　Pharmaceuticals and biotechnology: incubators, beds, infusion pumps

  　　Machine building and automation: presses, stamps, robots

  　　Industrial vehicles and machinery: balers, fertilizer spreaders, livestock scales

  　　The weighing transducer is also used for the indirect measurement of liquid level. For example, shear beams and bending beams—two types of weighing transducers—are installed at the bottom of silos, storage tanks, or other reservoirs. Knowing the weight of the material, the geometry of the container, and other variables, you can calculate how much material is in the current container. Since the weighing transducer does not need to be in contact with the material, this liquid level measurement method is particularly suitable for applications that contain corrosive, steam, foam, or dusty media.
