Selecting Load Cells – A Simple or Complicated Process?

The selection of load cells to fulfill a particular requirement often involves subtle judgements that are simple when the information is available and clearly presented, but complicated and potentially flawed in the absence of such information. As indicated by the title of this article, load cell selection can be either simple or complex, depending on whether one has the necessary background information. This information is freely available; but, as with all such data, the key is knowing where to look for it. Process Weighing using load cells continues to be a powerful and useful measurement technique. Application expertise is the key to success. The author hopes that this article will help the reader gain that expertise.
