COMPRESSION LOAD CELLS

Octogon is a leading distributor of high-quality, precise weighing technology used across various industrial applications. Their extensive range of compression load cells, based on strain gauges, offers exceptional accuracy, reliability, and a competitive price-performance ratio, with high product availability for quick global delivery.

Designed for limited installation spaces, these compression force load cells feature a bar-shaped construction where force is applied centrally. Made from stainless steel, they boast an IP67 protection class and minimal deflection. Inside, a metallic spring body deforms under pressure, returning to its original position when the force decreases. A strain gauge on the spring converts this deformation into electrical signals.

If the desired product is not found in the portfolio, customers are encouraged to reach out for assistance. Octogon continually expands its offerings and is committed to finding solutions for various metrological needs.
