2.1.1 Principle of a conventional weighing system

Conventional weighing systems are based on load cells, usually called load cells, which measure the load at a single point. For static weighing of large-volume objects, it is necessary to manufacture a weighing system with a load-receiving surface adapted to the volume of the load. Typically, several load cells are placed under a platform, and acquisition electronics are combined with computer processing to calculate the object's mass. For example, 6 load...
