Load Cell Types – A Complete Guide to Choosing the Right Sensor
Know the Options. Choose with Confidence.
Not all load cells are created equal — and understanding the different load cell types is critical when selecting the right sensor for your weighing application. Each type is engineered for specific forces, capacities, and environments, making your choice vital for ensuring accuracy, compliance, and reliability.
At Sensors and Gauges, we supply a wide range of load cell types in Australia, designed to suit industries from retail scales to industrial automation, transport, agriculture, and research labs.
What Are Load Cell Types?
A load cell type refers to the design and operating principle of the sensor used to measure weight or force. While all load cells work by converting force into an electrical signal, different geometries and strain gauge configurations allow them to handle specific applications.
