If your application is a one-off test, or you cannot justify the expense of purchasing a new load cell system, we have a selection of load cells (ranging up to 500tf) and instrumentation available for hire.
As requirements vary, our load cells and instruments are not permanently paired and as such we can cater for most projects. By doing this, we find that we can offer you better flexibility without affecting the availability/lead time of the equipment.
We don’t just hire out load cell systems either; also available for hire are +100 channel data logging systems and spot welders for site spot-weldable strain gauging applications.
The minimum hire period for all PCM hires is one week and will be charged on a rolling weekly basis for continuous hire.
Our workmanship comes with recommendations from organisations large and small as a result of clear communications and delivering the service and quality that customers expect, on time and within budget.
We cover most material types such as, aluminium, steel, titanium, fiberglass laminates, carbon fibre composites, glass, etc. We are also happy to trial bonding to materials as part of R&D projects.
