Compression Load Cells
In compressive load cells, we distinguish two types: Pendulum load cells and compact load cells. Pendulum load cells (self-restoring column load cells) are designed for very high load ratings. Typical applications include industrial high-performance scales, truck and rail scales or tank and silo scales. Compact load cells (pancake load cells) are always used when very little space is available. They are particularly low-built, yet stable and precise. Typical applications are for example conveyor belt scales, floor scales and truck scales as well as silo scales, tank scales and hopper scales.
