Shackle Load Cells

Straightpoint is an international company that distributes high quality, advanced technology shackle load cell sensors and systems to many countries across the world – and is a specialist supplier to the lifting and rigging industries.

Integrated load shackle systems are installed in some of the harshest and extreme conditions to measure tensile (or tension) forces such as those exerted from loads generated in heavy and other plant lifting, rigging, pulling and weighing systems.

Industrial-grade load shackles

Straightpoint industrial shackle load and force measurement devices work in complete distributed systems, tracking forces such as those generated from angles and tensions, and monitoring load weights. The load systems can assess centre-of-gravity data and provide a monitoring network across multiple loadcells via cable and wireless solutions.

Shackle loadcell sensors and systems are used for atmospheric force measurement in climates as diverse as severe heat and arid conditions in deserts, humid and wet environments in parts of Asia and the intense cold of polar conditions such as Alaska, the Arctic and Antarctic (north and south poles).

 

Radio and wireless load sensor technologies

Shackle load cell products used in load systems require connection to appropriate instrumentation, depending on whether Straightpoint instrumentation is connected via cabled, wireless and radio technologies; above-ground, below-ground or in deep sea / other submersible environments.

Designed to monitor and measure in all industrial-scale load systems, heavy duty, medium-sized and smaller scale lifting and tensile force applications, shackle force sensors are available as RFID-tagged loadcells for integration into the Crosby ‘quic-check’ RFID system.

Resultant telemetry linking enables force measurement results output via radio handheld displays over a safe distance. Straightpoint wireless load shackles currently work over a 250-metre / 650 feet radius.
