Interface works with quality engineers around the world to provide high-accuracy force measurement solutions that are critical to quality assurance and control processes. This includes load cells, weighing systems, and instrumentation. Manufacturing quality engineers rely on products from Interface to test both products and equipment on a manufacturing line to ensure they perform reliably and meet certain safety standards.
GUM, the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement, defines terms and concepts related to uncertainty. GUM describes methods for uncertainty calculation, and offers guidance for reporting and the documentation of uncertainties in measurement results. Interface knows that understanding GUM and the adherence to good test and measurement practices are essential to minimize uncertainties and ensure reliable measurement results for every application. In addition, reducing uncertainty with regular calibration of testing devices and proper maintenance of the equipment go hand-in-hand with GUM.
Interface defines load cell sensitivity in our Load Cell 101 Series. Load cell sensitivity refers to the relationship between the input force applied to a load cell and the output signal it generates. Learn more about sensitivity and the relationship to load cell accuracy.
It's important to understand how the the environment will impact output when choosing a load cell. Temperature compensation is a top consideration. What is the temperature effect on zero for the load cell?
Interface Customer Satisfaction survey reveals product quality is top reason why customers choose Interface. NPS is +73, a remarkable result highlighting loyalty of customers who buy Interface force measurement solutions from the market leader.
A system configuration commonly used in for less-complex force measurement testing is known as one-cell or single load cell system. They are popular for performance and durability testing.
Sensor specifications determine the accuracy of load cells. The sensor specifications relate to the max error of various parameters. Load cell basics from Interface.
Interface proprietary strain gages compensate for temperature, an environmental factor that can drastically affect the accuracy of force data.
Interface Engineered to Order force measurement solutions are modified load cells and torque transducers designed for OEM and customers with unique requirements.
