Crosstalk

Controlling Crosstalk in Multi-Axis Force Measurement Systems

Interface details the mechanical considerations and best practices for managing crosstalk. Using multi-axis sensors, crosstalk occurs when a load applied strictly to one axis produces a parasitic signal in another. For Interface instrumentation and sensor systems, managing this requires minimizing mechanical coupling at the flexure and applying mathematical compensation through precision electronics.
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.
