- Axle Drives With our balancing machines for front and rear axle transmissions, the measured unbalance is corrected by drilling into the drive flanges of the transmissions (welding optional). We support you with our interdisciplinary expertise in the production of front and rear axle transmissions from the initial idea to the design stage through to series production.

Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about our products and services
Listed maximum capacities are 5, 8, 15, 30, 50 and 100 kg. Platform entries include 360×360 and 380×380 mm by capacity; use the corresponding column.
No. Despite its C3 label and 3000 verification intervals, the datasheet explicitly states that it is not certified to OIML R60. Do not claim legal-for-trade approval from that label alone.
No. Approximate resonance values of 330–1720 Hz depend on capacity. They describe cell behavior, not the sampling rate of the weighing electronics.
The passive cell uses six wires and 2.0±0.2 mV/V nominal sensitivity. Alternatively, the manufacturer offers an LCMC chain with an ordered interface or amplified output; match the acquisition input to the selected path.
It specifies IP67. Nominal temperature range is −10 to +50 °C and operating range is −10 to +60 °C. Do not copy temperature ranges from other SP or PW load cells.
