A measuring system has many elements from the force sensor to the output device. Each can potentially introduce error. This article explains calibration's contribution to the accuracy of the measuring system's output.
Load cells contain delicate electronics and require careful handling. Learn quality control procedures for handling, storing and preserving load cells to extend their service life.
What are the most important considerations when mounting and installing load cells in scales or industrial systems? This guide gives best-practice tips.
Piezoelectric force transducers are small in size and well-suited for applications requiring miniature components or dynamic force measurement. This article explains how to install and mount them for highest accuracy.
Weighing systems often require multiple load cells to record accurate measurements. In this case, a junction or summing box combines signals from these distributed load cell devices. Learn here the trimming process that equalizes these multiple signals to ensure combined signal accuracy.
In force measurement, environmental noise such as voltage interferes with sensitive load cell applications, leading to errors. Learn best practices on how to reduce these unwanted effects.
