Build the Tension

One of the primary considerations for any new weighing system is whether a tension or compression load cell is most appropriate. Typically, a compression arrangement is preferred, given that load cells mounted in compression are usually mounted at floor level, making accessibility easier for site operators and service engineers. However, this isn’t always the case.

Some applications require something a bit different. In fact, next time you’re at a music concert, look up. Applied Weighing’s load cell technology is used in some of the UK’s top concert venues and is reliably monitoring the abundance of stage rigging and equipment that is used to deliver world class performances, and plays a critical role in ensuring the safety of music fans and performers.

Built in full compliance with ISO 9001.2015 approval, Applied Weighing tension load cells have an extensive range of capacities available, making them a versatile and effective solution for a variety of difference applications. The Applied Weighing AW500 S-beam load cell is rated to 2000kg, whilst the heavier duty AW518 Titan load cell can handle 10,000kg; all from a single load cell. Greater still, an accumulation of load cells all working together on a single application will combine their weighing potential, making light work of almost any challenge.
