Advanced Scale Systems Improve Aggregate Operation Efficiency and Increase Production

摘要

Electronic scales are available in many different configurations to meet diverse application requirements. Though they come in many forms, electronic scale systems deliver dependable accuracy in a rugged, convenient package. From material collection to processing, storage and sale, users will find a suitable scale for each stage of aggregate production. The heart of an electronic scale is the load cell weight sensor, which converts force measurements into an electrical signal read by a connected weight indication system. The most common style of load cell is based on the cantilever principle, where one side of the cylindrical device is fixed and the other suspended. A load - in this case, either a vehicle carrying aggregate materials or the aggregate alone - is placed on the suspended end, which absorbs the force of the applied load. This force measurement is translated as the load's weight.
