(OP)
Dear Friends

Does anyone knows that why inside of the holes of all single point load cells some signs of filing are observed?

it is obvious that they are made in the calibration process but I do not understand their exact function.

RE: Single point load cell filing signs.

Load cells are made from strain gages that are actually measuring the strain in the load beam to which they are attached. Filing adjusts the stiffness of the beam so that the measured strain correlates to the correct load. This makes load cells interchangeable.
