What Scaime Sas does

Scaime SAS is a French industrial technology company founded in 1983 and headquartered in Juvigny, France, that designs and manufactures load cells, force/torque/displacement sensors, fibre-optic sensors, weighing controllers, and indicators for industrial process automation. The portfolio spans three divisions — Weighing & Automation (99 SKUs), Tests & Measurements (106 SKUs), and Fibre-Optic Measurement (19 SKUs) — anchored by proprietary digital load cell designs with on-board 24-bit A/D conversion and the eNod controller family (eNod1/eNod3/eNod4) supporting multi-protocol connectivity (CANOpen, Modbus, Profibus, Profinet, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT). The company holds an unusually dense set of regulatory certifications — OIML R60/R61/R76/R51, ATEX, IECEx, EHEDG, EN9100, NTEP, UL, EN1090 — and integrates its hardware directly into Schneider Electric, Siemens, and Rockwell PLC ecosystems through validated function block libraries and TVDA documentation.

The company sells primarily B2B on a quote-based model, distributed globally across 70 countries through direct sales, regional system integrators (NONIS Srl in Italy, Shanghai Sunrise in China), and dedicated distributors (Guangzhou Behlmann in China), serving OEMs and end-users in food processing, packaging machinery, chemicals, agriculture, mining, aerospace, and structural health monitoring for marine, offshore, civil engineering, wind, and oil & gas. Reported annual turnover is 15 million EUR with 51–100 employees and 7% of revenue invested in R&D. Named enterprise customers include SASIL, PHS Packaging, Greif Italy, TUPUNATRON, WEN'S FOOD, UMICORE, and HyGain Chemical. The company is privately held, has no external funding rounds, and is led by CEO Pierre Delamarre.

Core offering

Scaime Sas designs, manufactures and sells industrial weighing and measurement systems, including load cells (analog and digital), weighing controllers (eNod4, eNod3, eNod1 families), force/torque/displacement/pressure sensors, fibre-optic strain sensors and PLC-integrated weighing modules. The portfolio is sold to industrial customers for process automation in manufacturing, testing, packaging, food processing, and structural health monitoring applications, supported by configuration software, mounting kits, junction boxes and PLC integration libraries.

Product overview

Scaime Sas is a French industrial technology company specializing in load cells, testing, measurement, and industrial control solutions. The product portfolio is organized across three main divisions: Weighing & Automation (99 products), Tests & Measurements (106 products), and Fibre-Optic Measurement (19 products). The core product architecture consists of physical sensors (load cells, force sensors, torque sensors, displacement sensors, pressure sensors, extensometers, and fibre-optic sensors) combined with electronic controllers and indicators. Load cells include analog versions (AVX, AG, AK, F60X, SK30X, SK30A, R10X, R30X, CB50X, CA40X, CB50X-DL) and digital versions (DVX-D, DVS-D, AAD-D, AAD-C, DVX-C, DVS-C). The eNod controller family (eNod4-T/C/D/B/F in DIN and BOX variants, eNod3-T/C/D, eNod1-T) provides signal processing, weighing functions, dosing control, checkweighing, and belt feeding capabilities. Supporting products include mounting kits (SILOSAFE-R EVO, STABIFLEX EVO, SILOKIT-RX, STABICAN, ISOFLEX, QUICKFIT-S), junction boxes, indicators (IPE50, IPC20), software (eNodView, eNodApp), and PLC integration tools. The PMESWT module enables direct Schneider Electric M580 PLC integration. The architecture emphasizes modularity, with sensors connecting to controllers that integrate into PLC-based automation systems via industrial network protocols.

Broad incumbents

• Siemens Industry (SIWAREX / SITRANS): Broad automation incumbent whose SIWAREX weighing modules and SIMATIC controllers compete with Scaime's eNod and PMESWT products in PLC-integrated weighing. Differentiator is in-house PLC ecosystem versus Scaime's cross-vendor strategy.
• Mettler-Toledo International: Global leader in industrial weighing solutions, including load cells, weighing terminals and process analytics. Direct competitor in core load cells, checkweighers and dosing/filling controllers, but at vastly greater scale and with a much broader lab and product-inspection portfolio.
• Schneider Electric Industry (EcoStruxure): PLC and automation incumbent and simultaneously a Scaime partner via the PMESWT module. Competes in adjacent weighing electronics but co-markets Scaime as a reference weighing block for M340/M580 platforms.
