How Load Cells Are Transforming the Construction Industry
Interface force measurement solutions are used for all types of construction applications from bridge and high-rise building projects, to foundation load tests and structural monitoring. Our load cells and instrumentation are used in crane and heavy lifting operations, material testing and equipment calibration.

Interface Solutions for Heavy Equipment
Interface force measurement solutions play a crucial role in the design, testing, and use of heavy equipment and vehicles including excavators, bulldozers, loaders, cranes, lifts, mixers, pavers, and compactors. Many considerations in designing heavy machinery are mandated by force limitations and equipment performance testing. Measurement for testing and monitoring come from our high-accuracy load cells, load pins, tension links, load shackles and other weight, force and torque measurement products.

Rigging Engineers Choose Interface Measurement Solutions
Interface supports rigging engineers who design, plan, and oversee the rigging of heavy loads by providing high accuracy measurement solutions. The use of load cells to measure the weight of heavy loads, such as cranes, ships, rockets, theater equipment and machinery is on the rise. Rigging engineers use the data from load cells, load pins, load shackles, and tension links to ensure that the loads are not overloaded and that the rigging systems are properly designed for each use case. This often requires pairing the high accuracy sensor with instrumentation, and for versatility wireless telemetry systems are useful for rigging engineers.

Innovative Interface Lifting Solutions
Interface lifting solutions are utilized to accurately measure the weight or force being exerted on the lifting equipment. Our lload cells, load pins, tension links, wireless technologies are integrated into cranes, hoists, and lifting devices to provide precise load measurements. Interface lifting solutions apply to equipment and machines used at construction sites, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, transportation locations, healthcare facilities, and maritime docks. Lifting applications can vary, such as loading and unloading goods, positioning heavy equipment or machinery, transferring patients in healthcare settings, or lifting materials for construction purposes.

Tension Load Cells 101
Interface tension load cell are a type of force sensor used to measure tensile forces in materials, structures, or machines. They are used to measure the maximum load that a material can support without fracture when being pulled or stretched under the applied load. With our proprietary strain gages manufactured inside the load cell sensor, it measures the deformation and converts it into an electrical signal.
