Pillow Block Load Cell – Accurate Force Measurement in Bearings & Conveyors
Rugged Bearing-Mounted Load Cells for Industrial Tension & Force Monitoring
A Pillow Block Load Cell is a specialized force sensor designed to measure load, tension, and bearing forces in rotating machinery. Installed under pillow block bearings, these sensors enable real-time measurement of belt tension, shaft loading, and mechanical stress, making them essential for conveyor systems, bulk material handling, and heavy-duty industrial machinery.
At Sensors and Gauges, we supply pillow block load cells that are precision-engineered for long service life in harsh industrial conditions, helping operators optimize performance and prevent costly downtime.
