Determining the weight of a mass requires a so-called load cell. Load cells are a special form of force transducer used to determine the weight force. This means that load cells are typically calibrated in weight units such as grams, kilograms or tonnes instead of the …
During weighing, the weight force is measured, typically using scales. The mass is determined in two ways: comparatively or directly. As the goddess of justice in Roman mythology, Lady Justice is closely associated with Aequitas, the Roman law. Everyone knows her …
In the pharmaceutical, building materials and food industries, on vessels and silos, on platforms and dosing systems, right up to kitchen and bathroom scales - weight is measured everywhere. In industry, it becomes particularly interesting when it comes to the level in …
In space, temperatures, pressures and forces are different from those in the environments we are familiar with. This means that measurement technology “up there” is exposed to specific stresses. WIKA has now developed, tested and supplied special force transducers …
Everyone involved in measurement technology knows the somewhat flippant – but very catchy – statement: “If you measure a lot, you measure nothing!” What is meant by this is: You can measure a lot. But the values are only useful if you can validate them. In …
