Laumas ANTIV Load Cell Mounting Kit

The Laumas ANTIV load cell mounting kit is a stainless steel and rubber compression joint used within industrial weighing assemblies. It is intended to help compensate for misalignment between the support plates of the structure, assisting with practical installation where load cells are mounted into tanks, hoppers, platforms or machinery frames.

ANTIV joints are used with compatible Laumas shear beam, bending beam and compression load cells. The range offered by GNW includes ANTIV35, ANTIV40 and ANTIV45 variants, each with defined load cell compatibility. ANTIV35 is listed for FCOL and FCK load cells, ANTIV40 for FTKL, FTL, FCAL, FCAX, FTP/-P, FTK, FTZ and CLS load cells, and ANTIV45 for FCAL and FCAX load cells.

Selection should be based on the load cell model, the mechanical arrangement and the static load requirement of the weighing system. The ANTIV series has an application range up to 2,000 kg. GNW also lists ANTIV35 with M8 x 1.25 thread and ANTIV40 and ANTIV45 with M12 x 1.75 thread, so the chosen variant should be checked against the planned mounting hardware and structure.

Technical Use In Weighing Assemblies

Correct load introduction is important for repeatable weighing performance. By allowing a degree of compensation for non-ideal support plate alignment, the ANTIV compression joint helps reduce installation sensitivity compared with a rigid interface. It does not replace correct structural design, levelling or load cell selection, but it is a useful mechanical accessory when integrating load cells into fabricated plant.

• Product type: load cell compression joint / mounting accessory
• Construction: stainless steel and rubber
• Function: compensation for support plate misalignment
• Load cell types: shear beam, bending beam and compression load cells where compatible
• System layout: for weighing systems using at least three supports

For replacement work, match the existing ANTIV code and verify the associated Laumas load cell model before purchase. For new installations, confirm that the selected kit suits the weighing structure, expected static loading and mechanical connection details.
