A sensor used to measure mass that takes into account the effects of local gravitational acceleration and air buoyancy. The load cell can convert the measured mass into a voltage signal. There are a variety of load cells, such as capacitive load cells; Electromagnetic balance sensor, piezoelectric load cell and so on.
Strain gauge load cell
The strain gauge weighing sensor manufactured with resistance strain gauge as the sensitive element is called strain gauge weighing sensor.
Strain gauge force sensor
The sensors that can convert various mechanical quantities into electric quantities using resistance strain gauges as sensitive elements are called force sensors. Such as tension, pressure, pressure, torque resistance, acceleration and other sensors.
The relationship between strain gauge load cell and load cell
In theory, mass represents a property of an entity whose unit of measurement is the kilogram, while mechanical quantities are vectors whose units of measurement are Newtons and other derived quantities that have nothing to do with each other. However, since mass cannot be measured directly, mass is measured using the force effect (weight) of mass in the Earth's gravitational field, so they are similar to each other in terms of measurement technology.
