Tailored for Each Application: Custom manufactured by Rice Lake’s overhead weighing specialists
Traditional crane and dynamometer systems work well in most industrial lifting setups—but in tight spaces with little or no headroom, a standard scale can’t be installed. That’s where MSI Load Pin Sensors come in.
These custom-designed, permanently installed load cells are ideal for tight integration directly into lifting structures. They replace existing clevis, pivot, or shaft pins, enabling accurate tension monitoring without taking up additional vertical space. The result is uncompromised safety and reliability, especially in mission-critical lifting operations like aerospace, shipyards, energy plants, and heavy manufacturing.
Each load pin is individually machined from high-strength 17-4 stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance and superior durability, even in harsh environments. Whether installed horizontally or vertically, MSI load pins are engineered to deliver reliable readings and activate safety protocols if loads exceed predefined limits.
When connected to weight transmitters like SCT-2000 or local indicators, these sensors become a vital part of automated safety and control systems. Rice Lake’s team can custom-design the exact solution based on your load capacity, fitment, and monitoring needs.
