Vishay Precision Group supplier in Romania
High-precision load cells and force transducers
Headquarters: Chesterbrook, Pennsylvania, USA
Who is Vishay Precision Group and what does it make?
Vishay Precision Group (VPG) is an American manufacturer of load cells, force transducers and precision measurement components, headquartered in Chesterbrook, Pennsylvania. The portfolio is structured across several brands: Micro-Measurements for strain gages and experimental stress analysis, VPG Foil Resistors for ultra-stable precision resistors, and, in industrial weighing, VPG Force Sensors brings together the Tedea-Huntleigh, Revere, Celtron and Sensortronics brands.
VPG offers precision load cells and transducers through several specialised brands: BLH Nobel covers complete weighing solutions for large-scale industrial processes and offshore applications, VPG Onboard Weighing (with the sub-brands Vulcan Scales and SI Onboard) serves weighing on vehicles and off-highway equipment, while the KELK, Gleeble, DTS and Pacific Instruments brands cover specialised equipment for steelmaking, materials research, impact testing and high-performance data acquisition.
For the Romanian market, VPG load cells and transducers make sense for industrial weighing platforms, precision dosing systems and instrumentation projects where the transducer must be chosen exactly for the capacity and precision the process requires.
What do we supply from the Vishay Precision Group range?
| Product | Description |
|---|---|
| Load Cells and Force Transducers (Tedea-Huntleigh, Revere, Celtron, Sensortronics) | Load cells for industrial weighing and precision force transducers, available under several brands in the VPG portfolio, used in weighing platforms, hoppers and dosing systems where the accuracy of the weight measurement directly affects the production process. |
| Micro-Measurements Strain Gages | Strain gages and instrumentation for experimental analysis of mechanical stress, used for structural testing of components before they go into series production. |
| BLH Nobel Industrial Weighing Solutions | Complete weighing systems for large-scale industrial processes, including offshore applications, where environmental conditions call for robust transducers resistant to vibration and moisture. |
| VPG Onboard Weighing Vehicle Weighing Systems | Weighing systems mounted on vehicles and off-highway equipment (sub-brands Vulcan Scales and SI Onboard), used to check the load directly on the machine, without driving over a fixed scale. |
| KELK, Gleeble, DTS, Pacific Instruments Specialised Equipment | Equipment for the steel industry, materials research, impact (crash) testing and high-performance data acquisition, used in testing laboratories and on production lines in steelworks. |

How do we supply Vishay Precision Group in Romania?
The information on VPG comes from the American manufacturer's technical documentation, and where the documentation does not detail technical parameters (capacities, accuracy), we do not fill them in from other sources. We bring in VPG load cells and transducers to order through supply channels in the EU, usually in 1–4 weeks from confirmation. For an accurate quotation, send us the brand and model sought (Tedea-Huntleigh, Celtron etc.), the measuring capacity required and the accuracy class required by the application. Availability is checked separately for each reference in the VPG portfolio — we check every request individually.
The VPG range is described on the basis of the manufacturer's technical documentation; the year of founding and specific quality certifications are stated case by case on request.
Frequently asked questions about Vishay Precision Group
What is the difference between CEA and CHA strain gages from Vishay Precision Group?
The CEA and CHA series are distinct Micro-Measurements strain gage series; the differences in construction and use are confirmed on the manufacturer's data sheets. The choice between the two depends on the environmental conditions in which the sensor will work and the length of exposure to moisture or water.
What are the Tedea-Huntleigh and Celtron brands in the Vishay Precision Group portfolio?
Tedea-Huntleigh and Celtron are load cell brands in the VPG Force Sensors family, used for industrial weighing in platforms, hoppers and production lines. The two brands cover different capacity ranges and construction geometries, and the correct choice depends on the type of scale and the maximum load required.
What data do you include in a quotation request for Vishay Precision Group load cells?
We need the nominal capacity required, the type of scale or platform in which the cell will be fitted and the working environment, for example indoor or exposed to moisture. With this data we can indicate the suitable brand, Tedea-Huntleigh, Celtron or Sensortronics, followed by confirmation against the manufacturer's data sheets.
Do you supply Vishay Precision Group products in Romania?
The strain gages and load cells in the Vishay Precision Group portfolio are brought in to order, usually in 1–4 weeks; the range is not kept on the shelf because of the large number of capacities and construction variants.
What are the Gleeble systems in the Vishay Precision Group range?
Gleeble is a family of thermo-mechanical simulation systems used in materials research, to reproduce in the laboratory the temperature and deformation conditions of real industrial processes. These systems are used by steel producers and research institutes to develop and test new alloys.
How do I request a Vishay Precision Group quotation?
