Force measurement solutions are used frequently in original product designs and components today due to the dependencies on force feedback during design, testing, prototyping and for monitoring performance of finished goods.
Interface load cells and torque transducers play a critical role through all phases of engineering and product design. Our sensors are preferred when qualifying product engineering plans, ensuring product safety, proving reliability, durability, and accuracy of new product releases.
Interface sensor technologies are chosen by product design engineers because of the precision, exactness, range of options, and quality.
Interface has been a long-time partner of product design engineers. Interface solutions are used throughout the entire product design process from qualification to product launch.
QUALIFY: Consult our application engineers on your requirements, including sensor specifications, features, capacity and use cases. This step is critical in safeguarding the right type of sensor is selected and aligns to any test plans. For help, CONTACT US.
DESIGN: We provide detailed datasheets and design files to assist in this phase. Every Interface product has specs and drawings available online. If you need help locating the design file, go here to submit your CAD REQUEST.
PROTOTYPE: We can provide standard products off-the shelf or custom products, based on the design and specifications. We will partner with your team to get you the prototypes you need for validation. Visit REQUEST FOR QUOTE or CUSTOM SOLUTIONS REQUEST.
TESTING: Designs are evaluated, and data is gathered to determine if the product can stand up to the solution requirements. Our sensors are often paired with Interface instrumentation and other products that are utilized in the lab to validate all the use cases and design specs. Visit our ONLINE CATALOG.
BUILD: The last step that Interface can play a significant role is building sensors at scale that are embedded components. We often engineer and build unique parts for customer’s product designs. Contact our OEM SOLUTIONS experts.
Across industries, our products are utilized in all types of equipment, industrial solutions, and consumer products, large and small. Ready to talk about your next product design? Read more about the product design and engineering process and how we can help here.
INTERFACE SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES USED FOR MEDICAL INDUSTRY ROBOTS
For surgical robotics, minute forces need to be measured with exactitude. To measure these tiny forces, Interface offers a variety of Interface Mini™ Solutions, standard, modified and custom-made. Interface Mini Load Cells are used for light touch, light weight, and when there is less space in the design or to maneuver. Our miniature load cells provide exceedingly accurate measurements like our full-size precision load cell. They are used by the medical industry for R&D, device testing and for OEM robot components.
Interface first supplied our pancake-style LowProfile Load Cells to the automotive industry more than five decades ago. Since then, we have expanded our product line to include specialized sensor models with tens of thousands of options and capacities, from miniaturized load buttons to
multi-axis sensors. Throughout the past half-century, Interface has continued to be a preferred partner to the auto and vehicle markets because we understand that quality and accuracy is essential to manufacturing and production of all types of vehicles. Interface force measurement devices are used for critical testing in both commercial and industrial vehicle design and production to ensure safety and reliability.
