Rigging

The Mechanics of Suspended Loads in Heavy Rigging

Interface products provide real-time measurements of cable tension and load weight to prevent dangerous overloads of rigging equipment. Rigging converts rotational, linear, or gravitational forces into controlled mechanical displacement. It relies on calculating vector forces, tension distribution, centers of gravity, and safe working load (SWL) limits to ensure that heavy components remain structurally stable and balanced throughout dynamic motion.
Mining Industry Transformation

Mining Industry Transformation Turns to Precision Measurement Data

Interface load cells, torque transducers, multi-axis sensors, instrumentation, and wireless telemetry solutions advance mining predictability, production, and safety. By integrating real-time data from these sensors into critical equipment and infrastructure, the measurements support smart, data-driven mining operations. Interface products are used in heavy-equipment, cranes, extracting machines, vehicles, scales, conveyors, tunneling machines and tools used in mining.
Tension Load Link Systems

Tension Load Link Systems and Applications

Interface tension link load cells are specialized force sensors designed to measure tensile or "pulling" forces. Tension load links are frequently used in demanding environments, including nearshore and offshore areas, which require certifications for hazardous locations. They're designed for lifting, weighing, mooring, towing, as well as tension testing and monitoring applications, and are used in marine, aerospace, manufacturing, construction, and logistics industries.
