The load cells on cable are very easy to install near the fi xed point of the hoist with no extra mechanical modifi cations. These load cells can be used for capacities from 500kg to 20,000kg with clamps available for a large range of cable diameters. Capacity per fall and the cable diameter are required parameters. Traction load cells can also be mounted with shackles at the fixed point of the hoist. The signal is independent of the cable so cable changes have no influence on the signal. The capacities are between 500kg to 15000 kg.

High precision load pins for load limiting and load indication on hoisting equipment. These high precision load pins can be mounted at the fixed point or the return pulley without any loss of height. Capacity, diameter, and length are necessary parameters to quote the load pins.
