Since writing tutorials can be quite boring at times, the DEWESoft team decided to make things more interesting for this example.

This load cell was a perfect chance. We added one camera to see the measurement live and there was an in-house competition trying to break apart the load cell to see who the strongest employee was. Since the measurement range of load cell is 30 kN or approximately 3 tons, no one succeeded, of course.

But since we are measuring the force on the cell, the results could be easily judged.

It turns out that the strongest man (as was expected) was the CAM/CNC engineer, pulling 570 N or 57 kilograms.

Of course the biggest question of all was: how did the management perform? As one can see from the picture, there was lots of effort and many discussions, but not really a big effect...
