Automated System finds center of gravity.

Press Release Summary:




Used with any load capacity, PBI-CG automatically determines and monitors center of gravity. Computerized weight sensing eliminates human error, as unit calculates, pinpoints, and displays center of gravity in terms of distance coordinates from known reference points for lateral and longitudinal dimensions. Product requires one setup for each load type and stores multiple craft settings for any kind of equipment.

NEW Center of Gravity System from Load Cell Central



LOAD CELL CENTRAL, a designer and manufacturer of custom weighing systems, load cells, and other electronic weighing and force measurement equipment, now has available a high performance, cost-effective means of finding and monitoring the center of gravity.

A proprietary, proven design for automatically determining the center of gravity, the PBI-CG can be used for virtually any load capacity. It is in use in a variety of applications including :

o Balancing structures on ships
o Balancing aircraft loads
o Monitoring heavy, moving structures such as radio-telescope antennas

Computerized weight sensing eliminates human error. The unit conveniently takes over the calculations for you , and immediately pinpoints and displays the center of gravity - in terms of distance coordinates from known reference points on your structure - for both lateral (side by side) and longitudinal (front to back) dimensions.

Requiring only a single setup for each load type, the unit will store multiple craft settings for any kind of equipment. The system is expandable from four low profile cells with base plates and a force acquisition/computational instrument. Measurements from one pound to any capacity can be rapidly, accurately, and automatically calculated..
