Interface offers load cells for all medical applications where there is a need to measure force. Interface sells more load cells to the medical industry than any other company in the world. Interface offers many patented products for medical including many with over 10X internal overload protection to protect against accidental shock loads. The overload protection is provided without the use of any moving parts or adjustments. Load cells are used in medical for both beam and in line type load cells. Typical load cells used in medical include the MB (beam), MBP (beam with overload), MBI (beam with overload and moment compensation), SMT (in-line with overload), WMC (in-line with miniature size), SML (in-line with low height) and our ULC (l50 gram capacity) all of which are in stock for immediate delivery. Interface guarantees that these products exceed the accuracy of any comparable competitive product.

The following are just a few examples of Interface medical applications.

  • Eye surgery systems
  • Fitness and Rehabilitation Equipment
  • Systems for separation of and weighing of blood
  • Robotic surgical systems using torque and load cells
  • Systems for testing prosthetics
  • Medical test machines
  • Submersible testing
  • Testing of axial and torsion loads on ligaments
  • Monitoring fluid exchange during dialysis or surgery

Interface stocks many products for same day delivery and produces a variety of custom load cell designs for the demanding requirements of our medical testing customers. All Interface load cells are available with TEDS, an integral amplifier to provide a high-level output signal.
