Use of load pins.
Load pins are used for force, load and constraint measurement in a wide range of applications and environments(industrial, aeronautical, marine or submarine when fully submerged at sea).
SENSY currently offers one of the most complete product ranges on the market.
One of the main advantages of the load pin is its mechanical integration. Indeed, even if we have a range of standard instrumented load pins (5300) that can be used for new developments, on a daily basis we develop custom-made load pins (model 5000), going from minimum capacity (0.5T) to maximum capacity (2000t).
By ‘custom-made’ SENSY is referring to load pins that are made to fit your requirements. These can include: dimensions adapted to your mechanical environment; measurement in two orthogonal directions; use of redundant outputs (SIL); operation in an explosive atmosphere (ATEX, IEC Ex - Exd, Exi); enhanced sealing properties (max. = IP68 subsea); and wireless transmission of the output signal, etc.
Although we offer a range of standard load pins for capacities between 0.5 and 125 t with fixed dimensions, it is possible that they do not match our customers’ needs in terms of capacity (up to 2000 t) and dimensions. It is even more true when we are equipping existing material, for which mechanical modification would be impossible or too costly compared to producing a custom-made clevis pin, even just one piece.
