Force direction of load cell

Force direction of load cell

A load cell is a force gauge that consists of a transducer that is used to create an electrical signal whose magnitude is directly proportional to the force being measured.

Classified by the force direction, load cells can be divided into the following types:

① Tension

② Compression

③ Alternating

④ Bending 

NS-WL5- Tension load cell (force sensor)

NS-TH3- Compression load cell (force sensor)

NS-WL2- Alternating load cell（force sensor）

NS-TH4- Bending load cell（force sensor）
