Winch Tension Monitoring & ControlLCM Systems solutions for winch tension monitoring includes replacing the existing load bearing pin in the winch sheave with a load pin, or a compression load cell meauring winch reaction. We can also supply instrumentation to interface with an existing control system. |
Centre of Gravity Weighing SystemsLCM Systems centre of gravity systems both weigh and calculate the centre of gravity of any large structure, including offshore oil rigs, boats, turbines and reactors. A typical system comprises of compression load cells and custom designed software that displays individual load cell readings, the total load and the centre of gravity of the module being weighed. |
Towing & Mooring Tension Load MonitoringLCM Systems towing tension monitoring systems have been designed to give vessel masters a direct reading of tension in the towing hawser during towing operations. The system comprises of load cell or a load pin installed in the towing hook, mooring hook or winch and a digital readout. It can also include an alarm that is programmed to trigger when overload thresholds have been reached. |
