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.

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.

Force Measurement Keeps UAVs Flying High
Interface force sensors, including load cells and multi-axis sensors, provide precise data on loads, stresses, and strains experienced by UAV components. To validate unmanned aerial vehicles during flight, these sensors provide information that helps engineers optimize designs, validate structural integrity, and ensure airworthiness. Engineers can identify potential weaknesses in UAVs by measuring forces during tests like wing fatigue, maneuverability, motor torque, fine-tuning control systems, and maximizing flight performance.

Safeguarding Products and Packaging Integrity Using Load Cells
Interface load cells provide valuable measurement data for packaging processes and equipment. They are used in material testing, package drop tests, quality control, delivery equipment, and conveyor belts. By incorporating load cells into packaging processes, product manufacturers and packaging industry suppliers can gain valuable insights into testing the stresses and strains a package encounters. Load cells can provide substantial cost savings, enhanced production efficiency, faster time to market, and improved product safety.
