LOAD MEASURING PIN (LMP)

Strain gauged load pins can easily replace an existing clevis, pivot pin or solid shafts in machinery or equipment to measure the load at that point . They are used in many diverse applications including cranes, winches, agricultural equipment (such as tractors), fishing, marine, offshore, subsea, aerospace, process industries, mining, hoisting gear, elevators and floor conveyors, cable laying machinery and many others. The load information provided by the pin can be used for process control, weight/force measurement, overload protection and safety related aspects. All Thames Side Sensors load pins are manufactured from special grades of stainless steel which are hardened to produce the best compromise between metrological and strength requirements.
