Welcome To The Cutting
Edge In Calibration Technology
Meeting the challenges of modern industry and the requirements of
international quality standards are core to the Loadstrain Calibration philosophy.
We design, manufacture and supply load cells of the highest quality, enabling
our customers to carry out measurements to traceable standards. We are committed
to sustained growth through continued investment in product development and
manufacturing methods.
The Loadstrain Calibration Service Offering is tailored around rigorous
manufacturing and test procedures to ensure total quality and unrivalled
reliability in the supply, repair and hire of our product range.
In today’s competitive
manufacturing environment, it is essential that measuring equipment and
reference standards satisfy the requirements of quality system accreditation. To
this end, our laboratory testing is conducted in accordance with the procedures,
practices and conditions required, recommended by SANAS and/or
its affiliated partners, agencies and organizations.
Loadstrain Calibration have a proprietary range of locally manufactured tension
link load cells ranging from 1 – 200 tons.

Product Quality and
Standards
Load cells are electro-mechanical transducers that
translate force or weight into voltage. This change in voltage produces, in the
read-out instrumentation, a repeatable deflection or indication that can be
calibrated directly in terms of the load applied to the cell.
Construction of the load cell utilizes all the advantages of bonded foil strain
gages. Sealed within the load cell are sets of matched strain gages bonded to a
high strength element, machined to close tolerances. The strain gages are
electrically connected to form a balanced Wheatstone bridge and additional
compensation resistors are added to the circuit for maintaining the accuracy of
the bridge over a wide temperature range. The principle of operation depends
upon the deflection of the strain gage filament, creating a change in its
resistance, thereby unbalancing the bridge circuit. As a result, for a given
input voltage, the output voltage of the bridge varies proportionally with the
load and the change can be read on appropriate instrumentation. When completed,
each load cell is individually tested and calibrated. Each cell must meet or
exceed rigid electrical and mechanical performance tests before it is released
for service. Also, every cell is proof tested to its full rated capacity, and in
most instances, to over its rated capacity.
The Loadstrain has a range of tension link load
cells that are locally designed and manufactured.
They can be used in
crane weighing, tension measuring and cable testing to name but a few uses. The
units are portable, come in their own carry cases and are weatherproof. The
technical specifications include a greater than 0.3% accuracy level, remote
output, auto zeroing, overload indicator, a high overload coefficient and most
importantly, a safety factor of 6 : 1.
Standards, equipment, and associated apparatus are suitable for the
correct performance of calibrations and tests and are maintained in accordance
with the requirements of ISO 17025.
The Loadstrain Load cells are manufactured from exotic steel and offer
great stability, along with all the inherent advantages of strain gauge devices
such as accuracy, reliability, and resolution.

About Services
Loadstrain Calibration sets the
standard for precision weights and weight calibration through commitment to
achieving the highest measurement capability and offering lowest
measurement uncertainties possible. Today Loadstrain
leverages its expertise and commitment to offer Calibration Services that meet
all of your measurement and compliance needs.
Loadstrain Calibration maintains strict controls, utilizing the finest
calibration equipment available and employs highly trained staff of technicians
capable of making precise measurements and monitoring calibration processes. The
measurement system is rigorously reviewed.
The Loadstrain Calibration proprietary software verifies the accuracy of each
measurement, reduces errors and identifies measurements that fall outside
acceptable limits to eliminate the possibility of a suspect calibration. Each
step of the calibration process is meticulously documented.
Loadstrain Calibration is a full service and can make
adjustments and repairs for many types of calibration devices on request.
