Company information:

History

LCM Systems Ltd was formed in 1984 to specialise specifically in the monitoring of rigging forces in top performance racing yachts. At this time the company teamed up with Diverse Yacht Services in the UK to provide the yachting industry with precision load cells and readout systems throughout the world - marketed under the LoadSense name. This market still plays a significant part in the product mix of the company and has helped the development of many new products and techniques over the years. The waterproof integrity and reliability of such systems is vital to the discerning yachtsman and LCM are proud to be recognised as the world leaders in this field. LCM has built up significant expertise in many other sectors of industry where standard (and special) products can be supplied in very reasonable time scales.
