Hey Gang...
It has been proposed by a supplier that we try a load cell that has a spring inside of it to offset a tare weight. In other words the first x number of grammes (in this case up to several kilos worth) is taken up by a mechanical spring assembly inside the cell and any weight over this value will impact on the cells bridge and supply an output.
This would allow us to use a cell with a smaller weight range with a weighing tablet that is much heavier. This will increase the resolution of
the cell and therefore the accuracy of the checkweigher.
My first thought is as the spring assembly ages it will require adjusting... anyone have any experience with this. The cell I am being asked to consider is a Tedea 9010.
As always I thank all for responding.
Best Regards... Rick Kelly
