Sensing the World of Load Cells and Accelerometers
Load cells and accelerometers are sensors with two different purposes in test and measurement. Interface load cells are perfect for measuring static forces with high precision. An accelerometer excels in detecting dynamic motion, vibrations, and impact. There are use cases for load cells and accelerometers to work together in a single advanced system. Interface can provide the force and measurement solutions for systems that measure force, weight, torque, acceleration, motion, and vibration.

Center of Gravity Testing in Robotics Demands Precision Load Cells
Interface specializes in precision force measurement solutions. There are different methods for determining the CoG of a robotic system. One common method is to use strain gage load cells. Not all load cells are designed for precision measurement. Center of gravity testing demands strict measurement. For example, Interface compression load cells are often used in center of gravity testing for robotics because they are very accurate and can measure remarkably small forces.

Types of Robots Using Interface Sensors
Interface load cells and torque transducers are commonly used in the design and testing of robots to measure and monitor forces and loads experienced by various robot components. Load cells are used to measure the forces exerted by robotic arms and grippers, while torque transducers are used to measure the torque generated by motors.
