INTERFACE 101 STRAIN TESTING

Strain Testing 101

Interface tension and compression load cells are used for strain testing across multiple industries. Learn about strain testing, a very common in general test and measurement applications. Strain refers to the deformation or shape a material experiences due to applied stress. Load cells are used to measure how much a sample or material stretches, compresses, or shears and distorts in response to a force.

Force Measurement is Fundamental in Material Testing

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.
