Torque Selection Guide 1

New Interface Torque Transducer Selection Guide

The Interface Torque Transducer Selection Guide helps you to quickly evaluate the range of Interface's torque transducer models based on whether you need a reaction (static) or rotary (dynamic) style. The guide enables you to select the best torque sensor based on features and capabilities, such as bearingless, contactless, compact, miniature, force and torque, overload protected, wireless, and USB output options.

Off-Axis Loading 101

Off-axis loading can affect the accuracy of load cell measurements, so it is important to take steps to protect against it. To minimize the effects of off-axis loading, load cells are often designed with measures to reduce sensitivity to forces applied in other directions. These may include mechanical features such as strain relief structures or specialized materials that are more resistant to off-axis loading. Additionally, load cells are often installed and used in ways that minimize the likelihood of off-axis loading, such as aligning the primary sensing axis with the direction of the applied force.
