Procter & Chester (Measurements) Ltd

Procter & Chester (Measurements) Ltd, sometimes better known simply as PCM, can offer you a wealth of experience when it comes to strain gauging and load cells.

[Procter & Chester (Measurements) Ltd @ProcterChester]

Our UKAS accredited lab (ISO/IEC 17025) offers force calibration from as little as 50 N to 5,000 kN, plus displacement and traceable torque. Learn more about our calibration services on our website. 👇

40 years of expertise, 7 years accredited. 🔬

Accreditation isn’t a certificate on the wall. It’s ongoing external assessment of our competence, traceability and measurement uncertainty.

We’ve welcomed 5 new apprentices to PCM this month! 👋

Across bonding, wiring, calibration, machining and admin, they're already getting stuck in.

Excited to see what you all achieve! 🎉

−253°C to sustained radiation exposure. 🥶☢️
Strain gauging done right can survive extremes most sensors never face: cryogenic aerospace tanks, nuclear monitoring, deep sea pressure, and brutal motorsport loads.
Which industry pushes them hardest? 👇

Ever wondered how mass gets measured to the gram? ⚖️

It comes down to a small but brilliant piece of engineering: the load cell.

See below to learn more, so that next time you step on a set of scales, you'll know exactly what's happening beneath you.

The accuracy of a load cell isn’t just about the strain gauges, electronics, or calibration - it starts with the machining. ⚙️

This is because the geometry of the metal spring element controls how it deforms under load.
