We use a custom designed load pin in one of our applications to measure tension on a cable. The device is installed in our own measuring head. The people at Massload were very easy to work with and produced a product that is accurate, repeatable, and plenty linear enough for our application. Since the product is made in Canada, it is also very economical for us.
There are over 50 of these load pins in use in rugged field operations right now. We have also used various tension link load cells and the floater crane scale made by Massload Technologies. Both us and our customers are very happy with the results.
