A smart load sensor developed in the
UK by Sensor Technology allows
weighing processes to be integrated
with handling operations.
LoadSense can be integrated with a crane hook, forklift or other handling device. It has an on-board single-chip computer for recording, analysing and archiving readings, and wireless communication capability which can transfer data in real time to a host computer. It is built around an intelligent load sensor, handheld display and receiver.
The company's Tony Ingham says: "Our main markets are materials handling and warehouse operations where the intelligence will convert raw data into instant stock counts.
