A new concept of weight transmitter
LAUMAS and weight transmitters: an immediate association in the weighing sector. This is because, over the years, we have actually developed and brought the world a new concept of transmitter.Let’s trace a very brief history of how this instrument has evolved over time, to then go on to discover the superpowers of our best seller: the TLB4 multichannel weight transmitter.A closed instrument…
Before the LAUMAS innovations, transmitters were merely blind devices, without a display and without a keypad, which were limited to detecting and transmitting the load cell’s analog signal to a PC or PLC.If something didn’t work, you had to manually work on the instrument and managing the operations, such as calibration, was complicated and complex.… that has started talking!
In 2006 our turning point: a friendly interface for reading the weight and setting parameters directly on the instrument, with keys and a display that perform all the functions of a modern weight indicator.This was the birth of the new generation of transmitters Made in Italy in the TL series, which can interface with any PLC of the major international brands.

The superhero of the family: TLB4
TLB4 is a true quick-change artist: there are 14 models, one for every fieldbus available on the market.![](https://laumas.panatronik.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/TLB4-transmitter-fieldbuses.jpg)
Its secret weapons
What are the superpowers that allow TLB4 to simplify the life of those who use it?
- Multichannel;
- practical interface: red LED display and 4 buttons for parameter configuration;
- compact space-saving shape with vertical rise, ideal for back panel mounting and suited for multi-scale applications;
- front panel mounting possible thanks to its original LAUMAS design;
- compatible with all PLCs;
- Inclinometer function: compensation of errors due to a change in the tilt of the weighing system, ideal for on-board weighing;
- parameters can be configured directly from the PC via the free Instrument Manager software
