Moment 101

Moment 101

Interface's 101 Series defines moment as the measure of a force's tendency to cause rotational movement, bending, or tilting when applied at a distance from a fixed point or axis. In force measurement, moment is the physical displacement or rotation that occurs when an unbalanced force acts on an object, and measuring moment in multi-axis sensors provides critical data for a variety of industry applications.

Examining Round and Square Multi-Axis Sensors

Two common shapes for Interface multi-axis load cells are round and square. Square multi-axis load cells have a cuboid or block-like shape. This geometry often simplifies mounting and alignment. Round multi-axis load cells have a cylindrical or disc-like shape. This model design is a compact, low-profile form factor, which can be crucial in space-constrained applications. Interface 2-axis, 3-axis, 6-axis, and axial torsion load cells deliver high-accuracy measurements for advanced requirements of more data than a single-axis load cell.
