Silo weighing products, such as load cells and weighing modules, operate on the principle of strain gauge technology. A strain gauge is a device used in smart agriculture equipment that measures the strain (deformation) of an object. When force is applied to the object, it causes a change in the object’s shape, which the strain gauge measures as a change in electrical resistance.
In the context of silos, load cells are installed at the base or support points of the silo. When the silo is filled, the weight of the contents causes a deformation in the load cells for silos. This deformation is detected by the strain gauge, which then converts it into an electrical signal. The signal is proportional to the force applied, which in this case, is the weight of the silo’s contents.
This signal is then sent to a digital indicator or a control system, which interprets the signal and displays the weight. This allows for real-time monitoring of the silo’s contents, ensuring accurate inventory management and preventing overfilling or underfilling.
Moreover, modern silo weighing products often come with additional features such as temperature compensation, which adjusts the measurements for variations in temperature, and overload protection, which prevents damage to the load cells from excessive weight.
In essence, the science behind silo weighing products like weighing modules are a combination of mechanical engineering and electronics, providing a reliable and accurate solution for weight measurement in silos.

Feed cost accounts for +70% of the breeding operation costs. Data on feed consumption plays big part in the Profit and Loss analysis of breeding operation. Accurate and real-time data of silo feed flow is of the most importance and greatest concern to farm managers.
Feeds are stored in bulk in silos outside the raising houses. The capacity of each silo is in line with its breeding scale, usually at a level of 1-2 days’ consumption (with a volume less than one day, extra workload for feed transportation will incur, while with a volume more than 2 days, the feed freshness will be compromised). The feed volume in the silo keeps changing due to its centralized addition and real-time consumption.
Silos with a height of +5m and weight of 5~40 tons are usually installed in the open air, big errors in data reading (+-10%) are common & often due to many reasons:
1. The load cell under constant pressure tends to experience fatigue and lose sensitivity from time to time, and presents big errors in data reading
2. Changes in season, temperature and climate (wind, rain, and snow) often cause changes in silo shape and position, leading to inaccurate data reading.
3. The vibrations of pipes for feed inflow/outflow, big conveyors or other equipment often cause data reading to jump, making it hard for sensors to get valid reading

In farm feed management, the accuracy of silo weighing systems is crucial. In order to ensure accurate measurement and efficient operation, selecting the right load cells for silos becomes a key task. Load cells for silos need to be properly selected to maximize their performance.
Generally speaking, if the feed bin has several support legs, several sensors should be used. Load cells for silos range selection can be based on the scale's maximum weighing value, the number of sensors, the scale's self-weight, the maximum possible bias load and dynamic load and other factors to determine a comprehensive evaluation. In general, the closer the range of the load cells is to the load assigned to each cell, the more accurate the weighing will be.
The accuracy rating of load cells for silos includes technical specifications such as nonlinearity, creep, creep recovery, hysteresis, repeatability, and sensitivity of the sensor. When selecting load cells for silos, do not simply pursue high grade sensors, but consider both meeting the accuracy requirements of electronic scales and their cost.
Farm silos often face harsh working environments, as frequent disinfection can cause equipment corrosion, outdoor seasonal and day night temperature differences, as well as dust effects, all require load cells to have high tolerance.
Corrosive environment: This environment will cause load cells for silos elastomers to be damaged or short-circuited, etc., so you should choose sensors that have been sprayed on the outer surface or have a stainless steel cover with good corrosion resistance and good sealing.
Temperature: High-temperature environments will cause the sensor to experience weakened adhesive, aging, weld cracking, and structural changes in the elastomer's internal stress. In this case, it is necessary to select a high-temperature-resistant sensor. In addition, there must be heat insulation, water cooling, or air cooling devices.
Dust, humidity: For some sensors working in humid, dusty environment, should choose the diaphragm heat sleeve sealing or diaphragm welding sealing, vacuum nitrogen-filled sensors.
Where and how load cells for silos are installed will directly affect their measurement accuracy and stability. When selecting load cells for silos, it is important to consider the structural characteristics of the silo, the feed flow characteristics, and the ease of maintenance. Ensure that they can be easily installed in the right place and that they are easy to maintain and calibrate. In addition, load cells for silos should have a long service life and low maintenance costs in order to minimize later operating costs.
When choosing the accuracy of load cells for silos, the accuracy of the sensor should be slightly higher than the theoretically calculated value. Because the theory is often limited by objective conditions. Such as the silo's working environment is relatively harsh and other factors have a direct impact on the accuracy requirements of the load cells. Therefore, to improve the requirements from all aspects, but also to consider the economic benefits, to ensure that the purpose.

In modern agricultural storage, load cells for silos have become an indispensable role. Load cells for silos can accurately, stably, and in real-time reflect the control process, providing strong support for various weighing needs.
The increasing popularity of load cells for bins is not only due to the continuous improvement of sensor design technology and process technology but also relies on the continuous advancement of sensor application technology and the continuous expansion of application fields. The demand for weighing is the most common and numerous metering demand used in various sectors of the national economy.
The core working principle of load cells for feed silos is based on the principle of elastic deformation in mechanics. When an external load is applied to the sensor, the structure of the load cells for feed bins undergoes a certain amount of elastic deformation. This deformation process is usually small and precisely controllable. The weight of the material inside the silo is directly sensed by the sensor, and the surface of the sensor undergoes slight deformation due to the applied external force.
Resistive strain gauges are attached to the surface of the load cells for feed silos, and these strain gauges deform along with the sensor itself under force. A resistive strain gauge is a thin-film element made of conductive material, and its resistance value changes upon deformation. This change can either increase or decrease the resistance, depending on the direction and degree of the strain. By precisely measuring these changes, the weighing sensor can sense the load applied to the material.
After the resistive strain gauge deforms, the change in its resistance value induces a corresponding change in current or voltage signals. The detection circuit within the load cells for feed bins can capture these tiny resistance changes and convert them into electrical signals. These electrical signals are then processed and amplified, ultimately being converted into an output signal that is proportional to the mass of the object. Through this process, the load cells for silos can accurately convert the mass of the material into an electrical signal, thereby achieving weighing purposes.
The accuracy and stability of load cells for silos are crucial for industrial process control. They must not only be able to accurately measure load changes but also operate stably over the long term, unaffected by environmental changes (such as temperature, humidity, etc.). To enhance performance, modern load cells for bins employ advanced anti-interference technology and are calibrated and optimized multiple times to ensure high accuracy in complex environments.
In conclusion, load cells for silos are not just weighing tools but also key components in intelligent production systems. They ensure the precision and reliability of material weighing through the accurate principle of resistive strain. With the advancement of technology and the growth of market demand, load cells for silos will demonstrate their immense potential in more fields.

Through this data feedback, the automated production line can promptly adjust the production plan based on real-time inventory conditions, avoiding material shortages or excesses and ensuring an uninterrupted production process. This precise material management reduces manual intervention and increases the level of automation in the production process.
The feed bin load cell systems not only provide real-time material weight data but can also coordinate with other production line equipment (such as conveyors, packaging machines, etc.). When the material weight in the feed silos reaches a set threshold, the sensor system automatically sends a signal to the control system, reminding the production line to replenish or adjust.
This intelligent scheduling method greatly enhances production efficiency, reduces downtime caused by material imbalances, and ensures the smooth operation of the production line.
When the feed silo load cell systems are closely integrated with the automated production line, they not only achieve precise material measurement but also effectively enhance the coordination ability of the entire production line. For instance, the sensor system can interface material data with the production planning system, and when the inventory of a particular material is low, the automated system will initiate the replenishment program, preemptively scheduling materials to be transported to the production line. This coordination ability reduces human intervention and errors, ensuring the efficiency and continuity of the production process.
Ultimately, the combination of the bin load cell systems and the automated production line can significantly improve production efficiency. Through precise material monitoring and intelligent production scheduling, companies can reduce unnecessary production stoppages, waste, and resource wastage.
Additionally, the automated coordination of the production line enhances equipment utilization, further lowering production costs. These combined benefits enable companies to maintain a competitive edge in a fiercely competitive market.
The integration of silo load cell systems and automated production lines represents the intelligence and efficiency of modern industrial production. This combination not only improves the precision of material management but also makes production scheduling more intelligent and coordinated, effectively enhancing production efficiency while reducing labor costs and resource wastage.
