INTERFACE 101 FLEXURES

Load Cell Flexures 101

Interface designs all of our load cell flexures. A flexure is a specially designed component that can bend under a load without breaking. They are used in sensors where precise, frictionless movement is needed, like measuring force. The flexure, a complex machined part, acts as the spring element. With thousands of models, capacities, and configurations, manufacturing our flexures is paramount to our load cell accuracy, quality, and precision performance.
Overload

Understanding and Preventing Load Cell Overload

Interface offers patented overload protection for load cells. Overload detection is crucial for maintaining load cell accuracy. Properly detecting and handling overload conditions can prevent permanent damage and ensure the sensor's longevity. By understanding the signs of overload, managing impact loads, and employing preventive measures, users can maintain the integrity of their measurement systems. Regular maintenance and proper design considerations are vital to avoiding the detrimental effects of overload and ensuring accurate, long-term performance of load cells.

INTERFACE TECH TALK Millivolts Per Volt 2

Detailing Sensor Rated Output Millivolts Per Volt

Interface sensor specifications state rated output, expressed in millivolts per volt (mV/V), as the electrical output of a load cell, multi-axis sensor, or reaction torque transducer in mV/V of excitation at the rated load. It essentially expresses a load cell's sensitivity. RO represents the change in output voltage in millivolts of the load cell relative to a change in the excitation voltage in volts applied to it.
