Shear Beam (Cantilever) Load Cell for Industrial Weighing

Shear Beam (Cantilever) Load Cell for Industrial Weighing

This shear beam load cell, also known as cantilever load cell, is a popular weighing transducer designed for reliable static weight measurement. It is available in alloy steel or stainless steel construction, supporting measuring ranges from 50kg up to 10 tons.

Boasting a simple rectangular structure, this sensor stands out for easy installation, stable operation and long service life. It delivers excellent precision: non-linearity, hysteresis and repeatability are all within 0.03% F.S. With low temperature drift, it works steadily across -20°C to 80°C. It offers standard 2.0±0.05mV/V output, 350Ω resistance and 5–15V excitation voltage, compatible with most weighing instruments and junction boxes. It allows 150% safe overload and 200% ultimate overload, effectively protecting the sensor from accidental overload damage.

This type of load cell is normally applied in groups of 3 or 4 units for one weighing system. It is commonly paired with matching load feet for assembly.

It is widely applied in many weighing scenarios: small floor scales, platform scales, truck scales, axle load scales and steel cylinder weighing systems. It is a cost-effective choice for factory batching, logistics weighing and industrial weighing equipment.
