Interface provides load cells and sensor technologies that are both highly accurate and reliable for weighing and scale solutions, including complete weighing systems.

Our commitment to provide dependable precision sensors and instrumentation is why Interface is preferred for weighing applications. To showcase the breadth of our product line, including complete systems, we have recently introduced a new Weighing Solutions Overview.
 

 
 

INTERFACE WEIGHING SOLUTIONS

Interface offers weighing solutions that are standard and custom for a range of weighing applications, including:
 

LowProfile® Load Cells
Load Beam Load Cells
Platform Scale Load Cells
Load Pins
Tension Link and Wireless Link Load Cells
Load Shackles and Wireless Load Shackles
Pillow Block Load Cells
WeighCheck™ Load Cells
Indicators
Weighing Instrumentation
Wireless and Bluetooth Sensors and Accessories
Instrumentation Software

Our 2023 Weighing Review Award nominated zinc plated A4200 WeighCheck Load Cells and Interface A4600 WeighCheck Load Cells in stainless steel are both high accuracy force measurement weighing solutions. Interface has new signal conditioning options for IO-Link Digital and 3-Wire Amplified Load Cells, which provide an internally amplified low profile load cell with a voltage or mA signal. This eliminates the need for an external signal conditioner and is scaled to the load cell, ready for use. Read Interface Weighing Systems and Complete Solutions here.
 

 
 

CAN YOU SPARE A MINUTE TO SHARE?

It is important to every team member at Interface to know how we are doing, what we can improve, and what your top priorities when selecting a force measurement solution. Our semi-annual survey only has six questions, and your input influences our efforts. Please take a moment to share your feedback. We do appreciate your business! Share here.
 

 
 

Controlling Quality in Hydraulic Press Machines with Load Cells

Load cells are commonly used in hydraulic presses to measure the force or weight of the load that is being applied to the press. Load cells are transducers that convert a mechanical force into an electrical signal. Load cells play a critical role in ensuring the safety, quality, and efficiency of hydraulic press operations, as they allow operators to monitor and control the force being applied to the workpiece with a high degree of accuracy and precision. Popular load cells for hydraulic press machines are WMC Rod End Load Cells and REC Rod End Load Cells.

In a hydraulic press, a load is applied to a piston or ram using hydraulic pressure, and the force generated by the press is used for various forming, shaping, or compression processes. A rod end load cell is typically installed at the end of the piston or ram, where it can measure the tension or compression force being applied during the pressing operation. Learn more here.
 

 
 

THE SPACE ECONOMY EXPANDS FORCE MEASUREMENT USE CASES

Interface has long been a provider of test and measurement devices in aerospace. The growing space economy is fueling the expansion of sensor use cases and capabilities. In our new Space Economy Solutions overview, we explore how innovation and investment in space-related inventions are growing the demands for high accuracy load cells, load pins, load shackles, wireless sensor technologies and digital instrumentation. From space vehicle landing gear to structural rocket tests, Interface products are being used across the space economy continuum to measure forces on earth and beyond.  Here are additional types of projects using Interface products:
 

Space and Flight Simulations
Launch Vehicles and Spacecraft Tests
Engine and Thrust Tests
Spacewalks
Robotics and Manipulators
Space Habitats and Agriculture – See Vertical Farming on Earth and in Space
Deep Space and Planetary Exploration
