Laumas supplier in Romania
Load cells and weight transmitters for weighing
Founded in 1984 · Headquarters: Parma, Italy
Who is Laumas and what does it make?
Laumas is an Italian manufacturer of load cells and industrial weighing systems, founded in 1984, based in Parma and present in over 90 countries. The range covers digital load cells, compression and tension load cells, shear beam cells and miniature versions, weight transmitters (TLB, TLB4, TLM8 and TLC series), WINOX weight indicators, load cell digitisers and complete scales — from platforms to pallet truck scales. From this range we can quote the weighing components for integration into industrial installations.
Laumas makes load cells and industrial weighing instrumentation. The company holds ATEX-IECEx certifications for cells used in explosive atmospheres and 3-A Sanitary compliance for food industry applications, plus its own Accredia-accredited calibration laboratory (LAT N.02141), which is relevant for the metrological traceability of measurements.
In Romania, the Laumas range makes sense for dosing and weighing systems integrated into production lines, for hoppers and tanks where the weight of the contents must be monitored continuously, and for food industry applications where 3-A certification is a project requirement.
What do we supply from the Laumas range?
| Product | Description |
|---|---|
| Digital Load Cells | Load cells with digital output, for integration into weighing systems where direct communication with the process controller is wanted, without a separate analogue-to-digital conversion. They are used on hoppers, tanks and industrial weighing platforms. The customer must provide the required rated capacity and the communication protocol of the control system. |
| Compression and Tension Load Cells | Cells dedicated to measuring compression or tension forces, used for weighing suspended hoppers, tanks on supports or force testing systems. The customer must state the type of load (compression or tension), the required capacity and the mounting method. |
| Weight Transmitters and Indicators (TLB, TLB4, TLM8, TLC, WINOX) | Electronic instruments that take the signal from one or more load cells and convert it into a weight value that is displayed or sent to the control system; the WINOX series is built in a stainless steel housing for environments with frequent washdown. The customer must state the number of connected cells and whether the installation needs a stainless steel housing for hygiene. |
| Pallet Truck Scales and Weighing Platforms | Complete weighing equipment for palletised or bulk materials, used in warehouses and production halls where weight must be checked at every material movement. The customer must provide the maximum weighing capacity required and the pallet or platform dimensions. |

How do we supply Laumas in Romania?
We supply Laumas weighing components made to order through EU supply channels, usually in 1–4 weeks. Our confirmations depend on the exact configuration required — we work from the manufacturer's technical documentation, so we need the rated capacity, the type of load (compression, tension or shear) and whether the installation requires ATEX or 3-A certification. For Laumas variants we do not promise availability from a warehouse.
Final calibration of a complete weighing system installed on site is the responsibility of the integrator or a local metrology laboratory.
Frequently asked questions about Laumas
What is the difference between Laumas compression and tension load cells?
Compression cells are mounted so that the force acts by direct pressure on the sensor body, which makes them suitable for weighing platforms or hoppers. Tension cells measure a pulling force and are usually used in suspended weighing systems or on cranes. The choice depends on the direction of the force applied in the installation and on the space available for mounting.
Which Laumas transmitter should I choose for several load cells at once?
For configurations where several load cells are read individually, the TLB4 series has four independent reading channels and the TLM8 has eight channels, useful for large platforms or scales with several support points. The TLC transmitter, with analogue output, can take up to four cells connected in parallel through a junction box.
How does the Laumas WINOX-R weight indicator work?
The WINOX-R indicator receives the signal from one or more load cells and converts it into a displayed weight value, for weighing and dosing. The WINOX-R 3A variant is the hygienic stainless steel version, compliant with the 3-A Sanitary standard.
Do you supply Laumas load cells in Romania?
Yes, we bring in load cells, transmitters and weighing platforms from the Laumas range shown above to order, following the manufacturer's public catalogues for each model in the range. These items are not permanently held in our own warehouse, and the lead time is usually 1–4 weeks from the order. For a quotation, send the rated capacity you need and the type of mounting.
How do I request a Laumas quotation?
Send the Laumas code from the nameplate and the quantity; we reply in English with availability and the lead time written in the quotation.
