How Do Load Cells Work

How Do Load Cells Work? Load cells measure force by converting mechanical strain into an electrical signal using strain gauges. When a load is applied, the cell deforms slightly—this strain is detected by strain gauges bonded to the structure. The gauges change resistance as they stretch or compress, producing a signal proportional to the applied […]
