Services
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.
Strain Gauging
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.
Calibration
PCM offer a calibration or repair service for damaged or suspect working load cells. We are able to work on most load cell makes and models from small to very large capacities.
Custom Design
With over 30 years’ expertise in the industry, PCM offers an efficient, cost-effective and quality custom design and build service for load cells. We aim to achieve the quickest service without compromising on excellence.
Repair
PCM offer a repair and calibration service for damaged or suspect working load cells. Similar to our calibration service, we’re able to work on the majority of load cells regardless of their manufacturer or capacity thanks to our knowledge base built up over 30 years in the industry.
Hire
PCM offers the hire of load cell systems, data logging equipment along with strain gauge installation equipment.
