Why Loadstar Sensors Load Cells vs. conventional load cells?

Revolutionary digital USB output, no additional signal conditioning, low profile, integrated software and low cost of ownership.

Traditional load cells are typically made from strain gauges which output a 20 mV total change in signal in response to applied loads. A user would need a signal conditioner to condition this signal, a data acquisition system to digitize the signal and application software to view and process the signal! Loadstar Sensors offers you a much more elegant and simpler solution!

Our iLoad Digital USB load cells convert a load into a reading on a PC without need for any additional signal conditioners, data acquisition systems or special software. Connect a iLoad Digital USB load cell to your PC's USB port and start measuring. The optional LoadVUE Lite load cell software can provide an elegant interface to make it even more convenient to measure loads. We've also recently released the iLoad Pro Series of load cells for more industrial, rugged applications. The iLoad Pro load cells are offered with Digital USB or analog output.

Our iLoad Analog load cells convert a load into a signal in the 0-5 VDC range. These load cells are ideal for applications that need to input signal directly into an existing PLC/DAQ - there is no need for a signal conditioner or linearizer. Our load cells output a linear signal: 0.5 V at No Load and 4.5 V at Full Load, to make it easy to incorporate our load cells into your custom applications.

We've just announced the iLoad Mini miniature load cell, and the DQ-1000 versatile signal conditioning board that enables three different outputs: digital USB, 0.5V to 4.5V analog or 2 mV/V. The load cell offers ease of use in a rugged, low profile 1.25" diameter package and heights between 0.5" and 1" depending on the configuration.
