The large load cells are to be used as part of a certified test machine that will measure the strength of a wide range of materials.

The company’s 2000TE cell has been proof loaded to 3000TE in compression and accuracy at 0.3% for all load cells provided.

Simon Everett, managing director of Strainstall, explained: "Having successfully supplied load cells to the same company last year. This contract award is a reflection of our ability to meet and exceed customer demands, and clearly demonstrates Strainstall’s international reputation and expertise in bespoke load monitoring solutions.

"Our client had unprecedented requirements for accuracy which is why they came to us and we were able to exceed their requirements in both tension and compression."
