Interface is at the forefront of innovative use cases and applications, providing quality devices worldwide to gather precision measurements. Interface unveils the top industry solutions, product use cases and applications that define force measurement in 2023.
Interface load cells, multi-axis sensors, and data acquisition systems are used for material testing. Common uses of force measurement in material tests include applications to measure hardness, torsion, strength, compression, bending, shear, impact, creep, fatigue, and nondestructive capabilities. It is common to have our 1200 LowProfile load cells installed into material testing machines at test labs and onsite. We also supply a variety of miniature load cells and load pins for material testing, depending on the type of equipment and environment used for tests.
Interface load cells and instrumentation are used in different facilities and resource manufacturing processes within the circular economy. Our sensor technologies help to measure and monitor forces, loads, and weight within the tools, robotics, and machinery used to optimize resources. Our sensors are also commonly used to test new products for material strength, fatigue lifecycle, quality, and function.
Interface is privy to the evolving landscape of test and measurement based on product demands and applications. Trends show an increased need for mini load cells, customization, environmental solutions, material testing, multi-axis sensors, DAQ, wireless, and measurement data software.

Fatigue testing requires accurate and reliable force measurement. Interface fatigue-rated load cells are designed to withstand the rigors of repeated loading, which makes them ideal for even the most demanding high cycle count fatigue testing applications. Interface uses 'fatigue-rated' as an exact specification that defines a special class of load cell design and construction.
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 provides load cells thare can be used in a vacuum environment. However, not all load cells are created equal or suited for this specialized use case. Vacuum testing labs are used by a variety of industries, including aerospace, medical, and defense. These labs are common for material process testing and used in R&D. Vacuum testing helps to identify potential problems with products and materials before they are used in a vacuum environment. Using quality load cells that are manufactured by force measurement experts in sensor technologies and experienced in working with vacuum testing labs and experts is an important consideration.
Interface force measurement sensors are used to test performance, lifecycle, durability and quality of sports equipment, fitness machines and gear across all types of sports, individual, team and competitive. Our load cells are used in R&D and design of products used for golf, auto racing, bicycling, training football, tennis and more.
Interface load cells are designed and manufactured for stress testing. Stress testing with load cells is an integral part of research, design, and manufacturing processes for various products and components. It helps to ensure that material, equipment, and final products can withstand the stresses they will be subjected to in regular use.
