Torque Transducers Review Plus Glossary of Torque Terms
Interface torque transducers measure the twisting force or moment applied to an object. Review our torque glossary, engineering tips, and fundamentals about torque measurement, including a review from Interface's popular Torque 101 webinar.

What is Load Cell Conditioning?
Interface Tech Talk defines load cell conditioning as taking the native signal from a load cell and converting it into a form for further processing or display. The raw signal from a load cell is in the millivolt range. Load cell conditioning is valuable for amplifying, filtering, and converting the raw signal from a load cell.

Essential Interface Indicators for Load Cells and Torque Transducers
Interface Indicator Instrumetation devices come in various configurations to suit various testing needs from handheld to mounted displays. They include load cell indicators, torque transducer indicators, and multi-axis sensor indicators. These indicators cater to different testing environments, connectivity needs, and sensors. When pairing your instrument with a specific sensor, we recommend requesting a system-level calibration to ensure optimal performance.

Force Measurement Tips Related to Data Acquisition Systems
Interface continues to add to our line of data acquisition systems to use with our load cells, torque transducers, and multi-axis sensors. These systems are designed for comprehensive force and torque measurement data collection and analysis. Choosing a data acquisition system compatible with your specific force measurement devices and application requirements is crucial. Consider sensor type, measurement range, accuracy, resolution, sampling rate, dimensions, and connectivity options.

Signal Conditioners 101
Interface Signal Conditioners are used with a wide range of load cell and force measurement devices. Transducers convert force or weight into an electrical signal. The output signal of a load cell is typically in the form of a small electrical voltage that is proportional to the applied force. Primary features of signal conditioners include amplification, filtering, isolation, and linearization. As detailed in Signal Conditioners 101, it can perform various functions depending on the specific application and the type of signals.
