The WeighBar, and how it works.

Weigh-Tronix pioneered electronic farm and industry scale technology with the introduction of the Weigh Bar more than 25 years ago.  Since that time, the Weigh Bar has proven to be the most reliable and long-lived electronic weight sensor in the industry.  It is virtually unaffected by wear, every day jolts, weather and other normal environmental hazards.

The WeighBar is fixed at one end and flexes under an applied load.  Strain gauges on the bar transform this physical change into voltage variations.  A digital indicator translates these variations into highly precise weight readings.  The WeighBar doesn't rely on perfect installation to be accurate, and is not in need of constant tweaking in order to perform.  The self-correcting design of the WeighBar cancels out distortions so only the vertically applied load is measured.
