Sensing Technology

digiBOX Weighing can be freely configured with (2-4) inputs for load cells and strain gauge-based sensors and features an input impedance of 80 - 5k Ohms, which allows for parallel wiring of multiple load cells. HBK provides a range of sensors for load measurement:

Bending / beam load cell
Canister load cell
Compression / Tension load cell
Single Point load cell

The sensor inputs are synchronized sample synchronous, enabling challenging weighing measurements with a 2 kS/s sample rate and 24-bit AD conversion.

Signal Processing

digiBOX weighing features a highly-configurable signal chain and integrated weighing algorithms for all types of weighing applications:

3-stage digital filter
Flexible user-calibration
Weighing functions
Checkweighing algorithm
Filling algorithm
Sum channel
Digital corner load adjustment

IT/OT connectivity

digiBOX Weighing offers parallel IT/OT connectivity, ensuring seamless integration with a machine's PLC system while simultaneously making measurement data, calculated results and device parametrisation accessible to IT-level applications without compromising the ongoing PLC process.

This provides the IT-Level with critical process data from weighing processes, enabling new possibilities such

historical data storage and tracking
complex monitoring
data acquisition (miniDAQ) and analysis
building machine learning models
digital twin applications
Remote access and cloud integration

These capabilities are easily implemented using the integrated openDAQ™ protocol, which allows for streaming 2 kS/s sensor data and seamless integration into programming environments based on Python, C# and C++.
