LCF
How it Works
- 1. LCF Pancake Load Cells are fitted in-line of hydraulic pressure or screw-type clamps measuring the compressive force applied to the mold.
- 2. As the mold expands and contracts due to the molten material, the load cell provides feedback to the PLC with the new compressive force.
- 3. The feedback is used to adjust the clamps in real-time to maintain mold compression.
- 4. When paired with the IAA Series Analog Amplifier, the load cell can provide a variety of amplified outputs such as 0-10 V or 4-20 mA signals for the PLC.
