MD Series Tension Load Cell

Moving-Line Tension Load Cell

The MD Series is a load cell specialized in measuring tension in cables, ropes, or wires as they move within a system. As the line runs over integrated rollers/pulleys, it converts live tension into a clean signal for display, logging, or PLC/SCADA control. Built from stainless/high-strength alloys for marine and industrial duty.

Typical applications

  • Winch and hoist tension monitoring
  • Mooring and towing line supervision
  • Cable-laying and tensioning systems
  • Conveyor, crane, and capstan sheave monitoring

  • Industries: Construction, Industry, Logistics, Mining, Offshore
  • Aplications: Anchoring Winches, Load Lifting, Measurement, Monitoring, Overhead Crane, Port Terminal, Pulley Systems, Silo Weighing, Testing Equipment, Winch Systems
  • Categories: Load Cells, Tension Load Cell
