INTERFACE TECH TALK Single Load Cell Platform Weighing

Why Use a Single Load Cell for Platform Weighing?

Interface Tech Talk answers how a single point load cell measures the weight of objects placed anywhere on a weighing platform or scale. Interface Single Point Load Cells compensate for off-center (eccentric) loading, have high repeatability and linearity, and have fast response times. For weighing, the single point load cell is a cost-effective solution for OEMs and scale manufacturers. They are simple to install, have a long service life, and require low maintenance. 
Delivery 2.0

How Load Cells Are Supporting Delivery 2.0

Delivery 2.0 is automated and autonomous, using load cells to measure force, guiding food robots, assessing shifting weight in driverless delivery vehicles, and controlling grips and the release of drone-delivered packages. Interface provides mini load cells, load links, low-profile sensors, digital instrumentation, and other sensor technologies for the testing and monitoring of delivery vehicles of all types, by air, land, or sea.
Crash Testing

Force Measurement in Crash Testing Improves Designs and Saves Lives

Crash testing uses Interface load cells to collect high-speed, accurate force data to identify a vehicle's specific weaknesses by measuring the energy and impact of a collision. Load cell data is used in impact, component, and structural crash testing to verify safety ratings and inform design improvements.
INTERFACE TECH TALK Adv Compression Only

Unidirectional Advantage of Compression-Only Load Cells

Interface compression-only load cells are utilized in test and measurement applications for enhanced performance, quality, and reliability in single-axis compression scenarios. The deformation of the strain gage provides measurement data. The design offers a more stable output and a higher resistance to off-axis loading, which can significantly reduce measurement uncertainty. Interface Tech Talk answers the unidirectional advantages of using compression-only load cells.
Consider Overload Protection

Key Considerations for Overload Protection in Load Cells

Overload significantly threatens the accuracy, longevity, and safety of force measurement systems. An overload occurs when the force exerted on a load cell surpasses its designated capacity limit. Discover how Interface load cells incorporate innovative features to reduce the risks associated with overloading. Interface offers a number of standard LowProfile and Mini load cells with overload protection.
Trustworthy Scales

High Accuracy Load Cell Solutions for Trustworthy Scales

Interface supplies precision load cells for advanced scale applications. Accuracy is the primary advantage of using Interface load cells over traditional mechanical scales. The strain gage technology used in these sensors ensures a precise measurement of weight, making them a reliable choice for precision scale applications. Engineers use load cell-based weighing systems to advance the precision and quality of scale measurement. Interface load cells are integrated into scale equipment for continuous weight monitoring and play crucial roles in automation, batching, check weighing, process control, and sample testing.
Spi

Why Choose a Single Point Impact Cell?

Interface Single Point Impact Load Cells (SPI) are sensors that accurately measure the impact force or load exerted on a single point. The Interface SPI and MBI are two models for platform scale single point impact load cells used for materials testing, impact testing, product durability testing, and quality control processes. Learn about the design and use cases for SPI load cells.
