Comparing Shear Versus Compaction Force Measurement
Interface load cells are used in shear and compaction force measurement. Understanding the differences between shear and compaction is determinative, as it directly impacts applications, sensor choices, and output data for testing analysis. Learn about shear force versuse compaction, also known as compressive, measurement, applications and load cell types. This understanding aids in making informed test and measurement decisions in material science, mechanical engineering, and industrial automation.

Universal Load Cells 101
Interface Universal Load Cells offer the ability to measure both tension and compression forces. They are versitile force measurement solutions used for all types of applications that need to measure force, weight and shear. Interface’s Model 1200 and 1201 Series IO-Link Universal Load Cells are pancake style load cells that are IO-Link compatible with an open standard serial communication protocol that allows for the bi-directional exchange of data from sensors and devices.

LowProfile Load Cells 101
In force measurement, load cells are defined by a set of specifications attributed to the configured shape and size of the flexure model.…
