Core Measurement Fundamentals of Force, Stress, and Strain
Understanding differences in measuring force, stress, and strain, and how Interface's load cells accurately measure changes in objects, will help you better prepare to maximize the potential of your force measurement solutions for critical applications.

Strain Gage Interconnection to Bridge Configurations for Load Cells
Interface strain gages are fundamental to load cell technology. In forming quarter, half, or full bridges, the interconnection of strain gages in a Wheatstone bridge is a critical design choice that impacts performance, cost, and application suitability. Interface details this technical topic to answer key questions about load cell design and strain gages.

Types of Test Machines Using Sensors for Reliable Assessments
Interface supplies sensor technologies to UTM machine architects, engineers, machine builders, integrators, and testing labs. Test machines use Interface load cells, torque transducer and multi-axis sensors for all kinds of tests including fatigue, stress, destructive, cycle, material, tensile and more. Interface products are used in test machines across all industries, including automotive, energy, medical, aerospace, and manufacturing.

Force Measurement Sensors are Essential to Modern Industrial Machinery
Interface load cells and multi-axis sensors provide critical measurement data for various machinery designs and functions. Interface instrumentation products are available to amplify, condition, and display the signals from force measurement sensors. The accuracy of force, torque, and weight measurements guide industrial machinery's design and performance mechanisms.

Force Measurement is Fundamental in Material Testing
Interface load cells, multi-axis sensors, and data acquisition systems are used for material testing. Common uses of force measurement in material tests include applications to measure hardness, torsion, strength, compression, bending, shear, impact, creep, fatigue, and nondestructive capabilities. It is common to have our 1200 LowProfile load cells installed into material testing machines at test labs and onsite. We also supply a variety of miniature load cells and load pins for material testing, depending on the type of equipment and environment used for tests.

Bending Beam Load Cell Basics
Interface bending beam load cells are part of our Mini Load Cell product line. They are available in a variety of shapes and sizes, with different capacities and ranges. Some of our most popular bending beam load cells include the MB, MBI, MBP and MBS. The use of bending beam load cells expands across industries and applications, for weighing scales, medical devices, industrial process controls, robotic designs, packaging machinery and civil engineering projects.

Interface Solutions for Structural Testing
Structural testing labs use Interface force measurment solutions to perform tensile, compression, bending, fatigue and hardness testing on materials, components, or assemblies. Structural tests are used for measuring tension of push and pull forces, design proofing, and lifecycle fatigue validation. Each of these tests plays a critical role in verifying the quality and safety of a product, component or materialss. Each of these tests relies upon high accuracy force measurement sensor technologies form Interface.
