How Does Tensile Testing Work?

Interface supplies load cells for tensile testing. Tensile testing is fundamental in test and measurement. Load cells are commonly used in tension testing to measure and record the force or load applied to a specimen during the test. Tensile testing is used by researchers, testing labs, and engineers across industries including infrastructure, medical, manufacturing, aerospace, consumer goods, automotive, energy, and construction to measure stress, strain, elacity, fatigue and failure.

Tension Load Cells 101

Interface tension load cell are a type of force sensor used to measure tensile forces in materials, structures, or machines. They are used to measure the maximum load that a material can support without fracture when being pulled or stretched under the applied load. With our proprietary strain gages manufactured inside the load cell sensor, it measures the deformation and converts it into an electrical signal.
