Michigan Scientific Corporation’s (MSC) Load Cells can be used in a wide variety of applications. MSC Load Cells are the ideal measurement tool for a large range of load capacities, from high loads with heavy equipment to precise, small load changes in delicate applications. In addition to careful construction, MSC Load Cells all come with NIST traceable calibration certifications and calibration support throughout the life of the transducer.
Overview
For applications with limited space, force sensors must be small enough to fit within an assembly, without sacrificing accuracy or durability. Michigan Scientific specializes in load cells and is proud to offer a miniature load cell that is capable of precise measurement at heavy loads. The Michigan Scientific TR3D-B-1K is a small, or miniature, strain gauge-based load cell transducer. The TR3D-B-1K simultaneously measures forces in multiple axes and provides accurate results for a variety of applications. This load cell transducer has a maximum load capacity of 1,000 lbs (4.4 kN), in a package that is 1 x 1 x 0.5 inches. With temperature compensation, rugged construction, and environmental protection, this durable force sensor offers itself to handle a variety of applications.
For complex force measurements, a multi-axis load cell becomes essential for obtaining results. Michigan Scientific Six Axis Load Cells can measure forces in six directions, meaning they can measure the X, Y, and Z axes, as well as the rotation around each axis. This means that a 6-axis load cell is capable of providing accurate measurements of both force and moments.
