2027 International Sales Meeting

Interface's exclusive ForceLeaders Summit will take place on August 20, 2026, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Join us for an advanced technical workshop on test and measurement. Topics include new load cells, instrumentation, best practices, complete systems, testing tools, sensor use cases, and valuable tips. Our force measurement seminars bring together experts and engineers working on projects across industries, including robotics, rockets, aircraft, manufacturing, industrial automation, energy, medical devices, and general testing programs. Together, we will discuss load cells, torque transducers, calibration, systems, applications, advancements in digital and wireless technologies, and multi-axis sensors. Most importantly, we will answer your questions. These are fast-paced, technical, hands-on events. Registration is required; seating is limited.

Mastering The Signal Chain in Test and Measurement

In test and measurement, Interface defines the signal chain as the interconnected hardware and software continuum that converts a physical event into validated engineering units. It encompasses the raw strain gage bridge from a load cell, regulated excitation sources, local analog conditioning, filtering, high-resolution digitization, network transmission, and the final analytical software interface. Learn engineering tips, application highlights, and why modern test and measurement requires planning for the entire signal chain to preserve data integrity.

Types Of Testing IMPACT

Impact Testing for Millisecond Assessments

Interface impact testing force measurement solutions are used in material, component, and product tests, from sports equipment to autos and aircraft. High-velocity impact testing demands high-velocity sensors and low-latency instrumentation to capture millisecond-long force spikes without data gaps or signal clipping. Pairing the load cell and instrument is critical for a successful impact testing system.
INTERFACE TECH TALK Dut And Uut

What is the Technical Difference Between DUT and UUT?

Interface Tech Talk reviews the subtle differences when referencing a device under test (DUT) versus a unit under test (UUT). The distinction between DUT and UUT ultimately clarifies the test context, whether it is an isolated component under development or a finished unit undergoing final validation.
5 Phase Framework

Interface Five-Phase Framework for Sensor Selection

Sensor selection with Interface’s 5-phase framework is a checklist for optimizing your measurement system. The Sensor Selection Guide takes you through a series of important considerations when selecting the right devices for your project requirements. Go through the phases of characterization, mechanical fit, interconnect, instrumentation, and calibration. Learn how to optimize load cells, torque transducers, and multi-axis sensors for accuracy and reliability in this sensor-first approach.
High Capacity Column Load Cell Tech

High-Capacity Column Load Cell Technology

Interface high-capacity column load cells have a canister design and are used for industrial, aerospace, infrastructure, and ruggedized testing environments. To address specific high-capacity requirements, Interface provides specialized column architectures ranging from calibration standards to redundant-bridge industrial models. Capacities range from 100,000 to 1,000,000 pounds of force. It is the choice for the primary choice for extreme-scale engineering. The technical appeal of the canister design lies in its construction.
THRUST STANDS

Thrust Stands in Aerospace Test and Measurement

Thrust stands are testing rigs built to measure propulsion output and efficiency of aerospace industry launches of rockets, aircraft, drones, and UAVs. Using Interface high-capacity load cells, the goal is to map the thrust curve and verify engine specifications against design requirements. Unlike the distributed loads encountered in structural testing, a thrust rig handles a concentrated axial force.
