2027 International Sales Meeting

Interface's exclusive ForceLeaders Summit will take place on August 20, 2026, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Join us for an advanced technical workshop on test and measurement. Topics include new load cells, instrumentation, best practices, complete systems, testing tools, sensor use cases, and valuable tips. Our force measurement seminars bring together experts and engineers working on projects across industries, including robotics, rockets, aircraft, manufacturing, industrial automation, energy, medical devices, and general testing programs. Together, we will discuss load cells, torque transducers, calibration, systems, applications, advancements in digital and wireless technologies, and multi-axis sensors. Most importantly, we will answer your questions. These are fast-paced, technical, hands-on events. Registration is required; seating is limited.
Types Of Testing IMPACT

Impact Testing for Millisecond Assessments

Interface impact testing force measurement solutions are used in material, component, and product tests, from sports equipment to autos and aircraft. High-velocity impact testing demands high-velocity sensors and low-latency instrumentation to capture millisecond-long force spikes without data gaps or signal clipping. Pairing the load cell and instrument is critical for a successful impact testing system.
Univ Waterloo Capstone Medical Imaging

University of Waterloo Capstone Tackles Physical Strain in Medical Imaging

Interface case study highlights the LARS project by the Capstone Symposium Team at the University of Waterloo. The Load Assistance for Reduced-Strain Sonography medical solution is a semi-robotic articulated arm engineered to aid with probe force application while keeping the sonographer fully in control of the procedure. The medical system, using an Interface load cell, integrates directly into existing clinical workflows and provides assistive support without disrupting the established scanning methods of the medical professional.
Ultra Mini Load Cells

Understanding Ultra Miniature Load Cells

Interface Ultra Miniature Load Cells maintain the demanding performance standards of larger models while addressing the spatial limitations inherent in testing small components or integrating them into devices, parts, or end-products. Selecting an ultra mini sensor, whether a ULC, SuperSC, WMC, or another model, requires understanding the specific form factor and how it handles external loads. The core of this category includes using load cells that fit dimensionally and by capacity and capabilities.
Strain Versus Stress

The Divergence in Force Measurement of Strain Versus Stress

Interface details stress testing versus strain testing using force measurement sensors to quantify material deformation and internal resistive forces. Distinguishing between stress and strain is critical for defining test parameters, selecting sensor capacities, and interpreting data from a material’s elastic and plastic regions.
