About Our Manufacturing
Load Cell Manufacturing
Built Around Your Needs
Trias Automation manufactures high-precision load cells for industrial, OEM, and research applications across India. Our manufacturing capability spans the full range of force measurement transducer types — from miniature single-point cells to heavy-duty canister cells rated for hundreds of tonnes.
We specialize in producing OEM-equivalent load cells that match the mechanical dimensions, electrical output, and performance specifications of major international brands — delivered faster and at significantly lower cost.
Whether you need a direct replacement for an existing brand, a custom-designed transducer built to your drawings, or a standard off-the-shelf unit, our engineering team works with you from specification to dispatch.
Based in Chennai with a manufacturing presence through our sister entity IJ Sensors & Solutions, we serve clients across Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Maharashtra, and beyond.
