Tension and Compression Load Cells
The use of tensile and compression load cells is versatilely. However, they are mostly deployed for weighing suspended loads. S-type load cells (or S-shaped load cells) are particularly suitable. These load cells can achieve optimal transmission of force through their central internal thread (with hinge and mounting suspension, if necessary).
Typical applications are suspended load carriers, tank and hopper scales, crane scales or weighing bands.
