In Concrete mixing plants, Load cell s are the core components to ensure accurate material ratios. Their cost directly affects equipment performance and project budgets. This article will analyze the four key factors that affect prices to help you make efficient decisions.

1. Sensor type determines basic cost
Resistive strain type: economical and practical, with a unit price of about 500-3000 yuan, suitable for ordinary mixing stations with low precision requirements.

Electromagnetic force type: accuracy of ±0.02%, unit price of 5000-20000 yuan+, suitable for high-end engineering or special concrete production.

2. Accuracy level is positively correlated with price
High-precision sensors (such as C3 level) have stricter error control, and the unit price is 30%-50% higher than ordinary models (C6 level). If the project needs to comply with ISO 9001 or strict ratio standards, it is recommended to give priority to high-precision models.

3. Significant price difference between imported and domestic brands
Imported brands (such as HBM, Mettler-Toledo): mature technology, perfect after-sales service, unit price 8000-30000 yuan.

Domestic brands (such as AVIC Electro-Mechanical Test, Keli): outstanding cost performance, unit price 1000-5000 yuan, suitable for small and medium-sized mixing plants.

4. Bulk purchase can reduce unit cost
Suppliers usually provide 5%-15% discount for purchasing more than 10 Load cell s at one time. Long-term cooperation can also strive for free calibration or extended warranty service.

How to control costs? 3 practical suggestions
Select according to demand: select resistance strain type for ordinary commercial concrete stations, and electromagnetic force type for special projects.

Balance accuracy and budget: C6 level can be selected for non-strict scenarios, saving 20% ​​of costs.

Compare supplier solutions: give priority to local high-quality brands that provide technical support and quality assurance.
