Flange load cell - (Tension Transducer)

  • Position-independent installation due to various installation options such as flange bearings, pedestal bearings, inner or outer fastening
  • Maximum operational reliability due to overload protection up to 20 times the nominal measuring force
  • Different shaft diameters from 12 to 65 mm and nominal measuring forces from 0.05 to 10 kN ensure a high degree of flexibility
  • The roller weight does not influence the measuring result, assuming a horizontal direction of measuring
  • Good temperature behavior and a high degree of linearity of the measuring elements due to strain gauge application on a flat surface

Function :-

The load cell comprises a stable outer ring with flange cover and centering collar for precision assembly. The inner ring in the form of a bi-directional strip ensures the centered mounting of the ball bearing. The radial forces created by the web unbalance the strain gauges linked together to form a measuring bridge on the inner ring. This leads to an analogue output signal proportional to the web tension.

Area of use :-

Flange load cells are used in practically all processing plants where web-type materials are processed or finished. In front of processing stations, in particular, it is of fundamental importance that the textile web is transported with a continuous web tension.
