A weigh belt. This is typically mounted on a weight transducer which can typically be a strain-gauge load cell or a servo-balance (also known as a force-balance), or sometimes known as a split-beam. Some older machines may pause the weigh bed belt before taking the weight measurement. This may limit line speed and throughput.
Steelyard weighing device from the late nineteenth century. Minnesota Historical Society collections. Roman steelyard from Pompeii.

Ideally, the voltage difference between S+ and S− is zero under zero load, and grows proportionally to the load cell's mechanical load. Sometimes a six-wire configuration is used. The two additional wires are "sense" (Sen+ and Sen−), and are connected to the bridge with the Ex+ and Ex- wires, in a fashion similar to four-terminal sensing .
