Load Cells Manufacturers Struggle to Satisfy the Demands


Manufacturers of compression load cells are now reporting a sharp surge in demands for their products, because there are more policies now recommending the use of weighbridges, Many government officials are now using weighbridges for estimating the weight of larger trucks, as many roads and bridges have limitation on the size and the tonnage of vehicles that pass through on top of them.
Governments are also using weighbridges to calculate the weight of waste that come to the landfills daily so they can set charges and taxes based on more accurate information. While logistics and cargo companies can optimize their truck fleet to carry the most optimum weight in each vehicle instead of based on the volume.

It means load cell companies are dealing with a spike of requests for weighbridges, while consumers are prioritizing on the durability, accuracy, and of course price. As the result the load cells industry are experiencing shorter lead times, which make a few manufacturers lag behind their delivery times. However a few companies that stockpile their products can cope better with the high demands as they can keep a good stock margin to satisfy their consumers.

Experiences of load cells manufacturers are one thing that often taken into consideration, especially major companies that can invest a huge amount of fund for research and development and become the forerunner in load cell innovations.
