Interface provides a range of cable assemblies specifically designed for use with our force measurement sensors and instruments. A cable is a carefully constructed unit engineered to maintain signal integrity and protect against external interference. Learn cable assembly basics, tips, and critical considerations in the Interface Cable Assemblies 101 overview.
A tension link load cell is commonly used in lifting and weighing applications. This sensor capacities range from 2.2K lbf to 1.1M lbf and can be customize. There are many wireless options and self-indicating for safety measures.
Load shackles are u-shaped, load-bearing connecting device designed for different rigging and load securement applications to provide sensor technologies in the connection of different types of lifting slings, chains or ropes to an object or to each other.
Engineers and testing professionals use data acquisition systems with Interface load cells and torque transducers to enable smart decisions. Interface DAQ systems empower users to identify points of failure, optimize performance, and create efficiencies in products and processes.
Interface provides transducers and instrumentation for all types of force measurement testing including tensile, compression, torque, shear, material, fatigue, nondestructive, hardness testing, as well as complete testing rigs and equipment calibration.
Interface Flange Load Cells advantage is the transducer hub is mounted using several smaller screws instead of one large central thread. They are preferred for accuracy, fixture alignment, stability, easy mounting and installation.
There are two main categories of torque transducer couplings used in force measurement, the difference is the degree of freedom needed for the application.
Interface load washer load cells are force measurement donut-styled sensors used to measure and monitor clamping forces, fastening control, bolt loading and for press and compression testing. Load Washers 101 overview.
An excitation voltage is needed to power the load cell and ensure the output signal is accurate. Load cell excitation is necessary to ensure the accuracy and reliability of load cell measurements. Interface provides electrical performance data on all specifications represented as VDC MAX, when applicable. The data for excitation voltage is listed under the electrical section of a transducer model’s specification datasheet, along with other factors, including rated output, bridge resistance, and zero balance. Learn more in our 101 Series that answers the most frequently requested questions about load cells and force measurement.
