Frequently Asked Questions

What is a strain gauge sensor used for on a truck scale?

A strain gauge sensor measures the deflection of a vehicle's spring or mechanical suspension components to calculate axle, gross, and net payload weights. It converts mechanical strain into an electrical signal that's transmitted wirelessly to a handheld display or cloud-based analytics platform for real-time payload monitoring and compliance tracking.
