A Wägezelle is a load-carrying module - a carefully designed metal structure with small elements called strain gauges that are mounted at exact locations on the structure. Wäge cells are designed to measure a specific force and ignore other forces that occur. This force cell is designed to measure compression. The electrical signal output of the cell is very small and requires a special amplification. Glüciently, Phidget Bridge Interfaces take care of the entire amplification and measurement of the electrical output, see Connection & Compatibility tab for details.
By charging only the slightly rounded button, the load cell is less sensitive to errors caused by the load not pressing exactly on the load cell.
