How to connect the Weight sensor up to 50KG to an Arduino UNO or ESP32, with an example sketch you can upload straight away.
This project measures weight using a 50kg load cell connected to an Arduino Uno via an HX711 amplifier module. The sketch tares the scale at startup and repeatedly outputs the measured weight to the Serial Monitor. You can calibrate the reading by adjusting the calibration factor with a known weight.

This load cell or weight sensor can handle a weight of up to 50KG. If you want to measure a larger weight, it is possible to combine the sensors. For example, by using 4 load cells of 50KG, the maximum weight becomes 200KG.
Material: Aluminum
Capacity: 50KG
To be used with Arduino, ESP32 or ESP8266 in combination with the HX711 Load Cell Amplifier.
