Growing Demands for Verification Test Stands

Interface helps many customers with test stand components, from precision and calibration grade load cells to output modules and digital instrumentation. Like mobile testing labs, stands are designed with a load frame that is comprised of a base beam, columns, and a moving crosshead. The load frame provides the support structure for the applied force test. Most stands contain one or more force sensor components with connectivity to software and an indicator or data acquisition system.

Engineers often utilize a simplified verification test stand to ensure that the sensors are working properly before fully committing to the performance test. Verification test stands are common in metrology labs, calibration labs, and where many load cells are used with great frequency.

Verification Test Stand Application

Interface has a wide variety of sensor technologies that are used in test stands, ranging in capacities and configurations. In this verification test stand application use case of a pre-configured onsite verification load frame, the customer uses the popular 1210 Precision LowProfile® Load Cell for force verification. The testing engineer applies
the specific load by turning the manual actuator. Applied forces are measured, and results from the load cell under test are connected with a Model SI-USB 2-Channel PC Interface Module for review and analysis of the output results. Watch this Verification Test Stand in action.

Force stands are typically motorized or manual. Motorized test stands, mechanical or electrical, control performance by applying modes such as speed, cycles, and time into the testing procedure. Advanced testing stands are frequently used for repetitive high-performance testing requirements, validating accuracy, and quality. Manual test stands are used for simple testing protocols and verification. Read Test Stand Applications for Force and Torque.

Advancing Industrial Automation

Interface engineers build and supply critical force and torque components for use by industrial engineers and manufacturers to monitor and confirm the construct and in-action processes and performance of their equipment. Applications for industrial markets involve everything from heavy machinery to weighing solutions. The accuracy of these test and measurement devices is critical to high-quality outcomes, low-costs, and, most importantly, worker safety. Learn more about why Interface is a leader in providing robust force and torque tools used for industrial applications and products in energy, medical, manufacturing, and more by clicking here.

Exploring Applications in Space Travel

Spacecrafts require a precision line of load cells, torque transducers, load pins, load shackles, and digital instrumentation with a proven performance. Interface’s work in the space industry is on display in testing labs, manufacturing facilities, and even launch sites worldwide. Using Interface products, engineers conduct structural tests critical to the launch process, including measuring force for tanks, wings, and the fuselage. Interface supplies our load cells to many aerospace customers for thrust testing, measuring the force, and other contributing factors for lifting a rocket into space. From testing gravity to weighing payloads, Interface is a provider of choice to our explorers of the universe. Read more about the array of tests and applications of Interface products used in the space industry here.
