Stainless steel shear beam load cell used in scale assembly

Weighing Equipment For Scale Manufacturing And OEM

Scale builders do not buy products, they buy tolerances. What matters is whether the cell can carry the division count you sold, whether the head will pass the same approval, and whether the second batch matches the first. Everything in this catalogue is published with its full specification table for exactly that reason.

Pain Points

What Goes Wrong In This Industry

  • A design finished before anyone checked whether the cell class supports the division count
  • Second production batches with different output sensitivity that will not corner trim
  • Datasheets that arrive a week after the engineering decision was needed
  • Component and finished scale supply split across suppliers and containers

What Buyers Actually Need

  • OIML R60 approved cells with published n max and v min
  • Consistent output sensitivity and bridge resistance batch to batch
  • A matching analogue indicator range
  • Test weights to verify the finished build before dispatch

Scenarios

Where Weighing Happens On Site

  • Bench scale build

    A single point aluminium cell sized to the platform, with the maximum platform size published for each family so corner load behaviour is predictable.

  • Floor and platform scale build

    Four shear beam cells and a summing box, with the same capacity and sensitivity across the set.

  • Weighbridge build

    Column cells in C3 with a printable indicator and spares held for the installed base.

  • Final verification

    Class F2 or M1 test weights used to verify each finished scale before it leaves the factory.

Specification Process

How We Specify For This Industry

  • Fix the division count

    Decide the e value you have to certify, then pick the accuracy class whose n max covers it.

  • Check v min against your design

    The minimum verification interval limits how small a division the finished scale can legally use.

  • Match the platform to the cell

    Single point families publish a maximum platform size; exceeding it causes corner errors no trimming will remove.

  • Lock the bill of materials

    Record cell family, capacity, sensitivity and cable length so repeat orders reproduce the same build.

Questions Buyers Ask

Scale Manufacturing And OEM Questions

Can I order a trial quantity before committing?

Yes. Send the family, capacity and accuracy class you want to evaluate and we will quote a trial quantity, then hold the same specification for the production order.

Are output sensitivity and bridge resistance consistent between batches?

Each family publishes its output sensitivity, input resistance and output resistance with tolerances, and orders are placed against that specification. Quote the same family and capacity on repeat orders to keep a set corner trimmable.

Do you supply the summing box and cable?

Cable is fitted to the cells with length specified by capacity. Tell us what junction and summing hardware you need quoted alongside the cells.

Can you supply both components and finished scales on one order?

Yes, and it is the main reason builders work with us. Load cells, indicators, finished platforms and test weights ship together under one set of documents.
