How Load Cells Can Go Bad

March 21, 2023

Load cells are electronic devices that measure the force applied to them. Interface products are made to last, in fact we have many load cells that are in-market and being used for high-accuracy testing that were manufactured decades ago. Why do they last? Quality of design, material construction, build process, calibration, and regular maintenance will prolong the life of a load cell. Like any electronic device, load cells can go bad for a few reasons. It is also important to know that load cells can be repaired. If you are concerned about whether your load cell is working properly, do a quick health check and request an evaluation from Interface.

March 9, 2023

Interface is a top provider of force, torque and weighing measurement solutions to electrical engineers around the world. Sensors are a critical tool for electrical engineers in testing and optimizing the performance of electronic devices, systems, and processes. The type of sensor used, and the specific testing application will depend on the needs of the project or product.

Using Multi-Axis Sensors to Bring Robotics to Life

March 7, 2023

Multi-axis sensors provide several benefits for use in robotics, as they allow for accurately measuring the robot's position, orientation, and movement. Interface offers a wide variety of multi-axis sensor options including 2-axis, 3-axis, 6-axis, and axial torsion load cell sensors. The benefits of using multi-axis sensors aligns to the advancements in robotics, as the expectations to do more means more data is needed to thoroughly test and measure every capability and interaction with accuracy.

Off-Axis Loading 101

March 2, 2023

Off-axis loading can affect the accuracy of load cell measurements, so it is important to take steps to protect against it. To minimize the effects of off-axis loading, load cells are often designed with measures to reduce sensitivity to forces applied in other directions. These may include mechanical features such as strain relief structures or specialized materials that are more resistant to off-axis loading. Additionally, load cells are often installed and used in ways that minimize the likelihood of off-axis loading, such as aligning the primary sensing axis with the direction of the applied force.

Innovative Interface Load Pin Applications

February 28, 2023

Interface load pins are commonly used in lifting and cranes to measure forces applied during use. Did you know they are also used in applications for tractors, airplane landing gear, aerospace structures, loading docks and monitoring bridges? Learn more about load pin applications and how they might be the right solution for your next project.
