Load cells and force transducers
Overview
|
DescriptionThe CC force transducers have been designed for use in the plastics industry where it is required to measure the reaction force to the extrusion pressure that is present on the casing of the gearbox along the axis of the extruder screw. These models, fitted in contact with the thrust bearings, measure a force whose valve, after suitable correction, is equal to extrusion pressure multiplied by the screw area. The CC cylindrical force transducers are all stainless steel construction and configured in such a way that the body, airtight welded, acts also as the case, making a unit that is smaller than the CT series. The connector in the shank is on the same axis as the transducer, which in some cases alows easier installation. |
OverviewThe TU range of load cells are designed for the measurement of static or dynamic loads in compression or traction. All the transducers are calibrated as load cells in units of mass (Kg). The TU series is supplied for nominal loads from 50 Kg to 1 T. This model has an IP67 protection degree so it can be used in aggressive atmospheres often found in the chemical industries. The transducer body is machined from a single piece of stainless steel with no welding. This means that it is highly resistant to mechanical shock and vibration. The compact size means that these cells can be placed in positions that are difficult to acess and where little space is available. |

OverviewThe CT series force transducers, have been specially designed for use in polymer processing in applications where it is required to measure the reaction force produced by the extru-sion pressure on the gearbox along the axis of the screw. They measure a force whose value is indicative of the extrusion pressure over the area of the screw. The CT series force transducers can also be used in all other applications where it is required to measure the forces on shafts or columns and in any application where the geometry demands a toroidal form load cell. |

OverviewTC series load cells are strain gauge transducers used to measure loads in static and dynamic applications, in tension and compression, with high accuracy (industrial weighing, laboratory testing, automation, etc). The TC series is machined from a single block of metal, so the primary sensing element, the mountings and the case contain no welds allowing smaller dimensions and an enhanced grade of protection. The configuration of the point of measurement, with 8 strain gauges, reduces errors caused by imperfect application of the load. Typical applications of load cells connected in parallel are: silos, hoppers, large weighing platforms, and with suitable accessories, suspended loads. The stainless steel construction is suitable for use in aggressive environments in the chemical and petrochemical industries. |

OverviewThe TH series force transducers are ideal for systems that measure tension or compression force in industrial applications, where accuracy and reliability are important, even in harsh environments. The disposition of the (8) strain gauges of the measurement bridges uses the deformation produced by the shear force of the applied load. It is thus possible to make accurate force transducers that are rugged and insensitive to lateral loads. The transducer is machined from a solid block of stainless steel and contains no welds or joints. The electrical circuit is protected by sealed formed stainless steel plates. |

OverviewThe AM force transducers series have been designed to measure static and dynamic compression forces. They are particularly suitable for monitoring pounding operations in compression which require a rugged transducer, insensitive to high resonance frequencies caused by non-homogeneous leads in dynamic sequences. The accuracy and the stability are not affected by continuous cycling under harsh conditions even with dynamic loads. The small size of the AM force transducers makes them ideal for retrofitting in existing equipment. |
