Ball Type Load Cell
A ball type load cell is an accessory for weighbridges that is used to measure the weight of loads in a precise and accurate manner. A load cell is a type of transducer that converts a mechanical force into an electrical signal that can be measured and recorded. A ball type load cell is designed with a ball-and-cup arrangement that allows it to measure loads in multiple directions. The load cell is typically mounted between the weighbridge deck and the load-bearing structure, such as a truck or other vehicle. The ball type load cell works by measuring the deflection of a metal ball as the load is applied to the weighbridge deck. The deflection is converted into an electrical signal, which can be processed and displayed as a weight reading. Ball type load cells are typically used in high-capacity weighbridge applications, where the weight of the load may be several tons or more. They are designed to provide accurate and reliable weight measurements even in challenging environmental conditions, such as high temperatures, humidity, and vibration. Overall, ball type load cells are an essential accessory for high-capacity weighbridges that require precise and accurate weight measurements. The load cells provide a reliable and robust method for measuring the weight of loads in multiple directions, helping to ensure the accuracy and reliability of weighbridge operations.
