What is A Load Profile in Test and Measurement?
Interface Tech Talk explores load profile, the time-dependent record of the magnitude, direction, duration, and frequency of mechanical forces a test structure or transducer experiences during operation. Learn key load profile questions prior to sensor selection, engineering tips, use cases, and technical considerations when defining your load profile for your test and measurement applications.

Impact Testing for Millisecond Assessments
Interface impact testing force measurement solutions are used in material, component, and product tests, from sports equipment to autos and aircraft. High-velocity impact testing demands high-velocity sensors and low-latency instrumentation to capture millisecond-long force spikes without data gaps or signal clipping. Pairing the load cell and instrument is critical for a successful impact testing system.

Smart Food Packaging Uses Force Measurement
Interface force measurement technologies are helping to transform the food packaging industry with greater precision and reduced waste. Interface offers sensor solutions to automate and regulate every packaging stage, from rigorous packaging material tests to precise force measurements for filling, sealing, and distributing food products.

The Crushing Reality of Impact Loads
Interface details the importance of understanding impact loads, which introduce a dynamic element that significantly amplifies the force experienced by the load cell. Physics are important in force measurement, understand how to protect your sensors from overload and damage from impact. Learn about impact drop testing and key considerations when choosing a sensor.
