Bending Beam Load Cell β Compact Precision for Industrial Weighing
Reliable Measurement for Tanks, Hoppers, and Platforms
A bending beam load cell is a widely used force sensor designed to measure weight and force with high accuracy in compact spaces. These load cells are especially common in industrial floor scales, tank weighing systems, conveyor belts, and batching machinery.
At Sensors and Gauges, we supply bending beam load cells that deliver long-term reliability, ISO-certified accuracy, and seamless integration into your weighing applications.
What is a Bending Beam Load Cell?
A bending beam load cell works on the principle of strain measurement. When a load is applied, the beam bends slightly, and strain gauges bonded to the beam measure this deformation. This results in a highly accurate electrical output proportional to the applied load.
These sensors are compact yet durable, making them suitable for industrial environments where space is limited.
Compact Design β Ideal for applications with limited space.
High Accuracy β Excellent linearity and repeatability.
Durable Construction β Stainless steel or alloy steel options.
Wide Capacity Range β From small laboratory scales to multi-ton tanks.
Environmental Protection β IP-rated models for harsh conditions.
