Pots and Pans Press

During the manufacturing processes for aluminum pots and pans, this involves sheets of aluminum that are spun and pressed into the required shapes. A load cell is needed to measure the force exerted during the shaping process.


Summary

  • Customer Need / Challenge

    During the manufacturing processes for aluminum pots and pans, this involves sheets of aluminum that are spun and pressed into the required shapes. A load cell is needed to measure the force exerted during the shaping process.

  • Interface Solution

    Interface’s 1210 Standard Precision Universal LowProfile™ Load Cell is installed into the press machine that shapes the pots and pans. Force results a synced through the INF-USB3 Universal Serial Bus Single Channel PC Interface Module. These results can be displayed on the customer’s PC with supplied software.

  • Results

    Interface’s LowProfile™ load cell and instrumentation successfully and accurately measured the forces exerted during the pots and pans manufacturing process.

Materials


  • 1210 Standard Precision Universal LowProfile™ Load Cell

  • INF-USB3 Universal Serial Bus Single Channel PC Interface Module with supplied software

  • Customer computer

  • Customer pots and pan press machine

How it Works


  1. The 1210 Standard Precision Universal LowProfile™ Load Cell is installed into the mechanism that presses the aluminum sheets.

  2. An aluminum sheet is pressed and shaped into a pot or pan.

  3. The 1210 measures the forces exerted, and is sent to the INF-USB3 Universal Serial Bus Single Channel PC Interface Module where the force results are displayed, logged, and graphed on the customer’s computer.
