Overview
Custom OEM load sensors and instruments are designed to meet specific OEM requirements for replacing or modernizing existing equipment. These sensors offer in-stream weight measurement and can incorporate custom mechanical brackets, embedded electronics and tailored communication protocols to integrate seamlessly with vehicle, machine or instrument control systems.

Key Features

• Custom production capabilities for small to large volumes
• Mechanical, bracket and electronic sensor design adapted to application constraints
• Secure and reliable global shipping
• Global customer support available 24/7, 365 days a year
• Embedded electronics options supporting CANbus, Modbus, Full Duplex RS485 and other protocols

Applications

• Construction: prevents overloading of aerial work platforms, scissor lifts, telescopic handlers and cranes with real-time monitoring to avoid structural damage and accidents
• Medical: suitable for medical beds, patient lifts, medical scales and dialysis machines; custom designs can be certified to OIML and NTEP where required
• Agriculture: monitoring crop weight and inputs; fitment for tractors, balers, fertilizer spreaders and combines
• Robotics and automation: sensors tailored to monitor motion, position, grip and force across industrial automation systems

Custom Load Sensor Development Process

• 1. Concept — collaboration with OEMs to define sensor requirements, mounting and data communication needs
• 2. Design — concept design and prototype development built to application specifications
• 3. Quality Assurance and Documentation — manufacturing validation, regulatory compliance checks and quotation
• 4. Production — finalized product enters series production and integration after functional and compliance approval
