Interface supplies sensor technologies used in equipment, components and machines for increased versatility, safety, and improved operation. Accuracy in measurement reduces the risk of accidents and equipment failures.
When Interface defines lifting applications, we are referring to the actions of objects, materials, or loads being raised, lowered, or moved vertically or horizontally using lifting equipment or mechanisms. For use of our measurement solutions, these lifting applications involve the use of specialized equipment designed to safely and efficiently handle diverse types of loads.

INTERFACE LIFTING SOLUTIONS
Interface Load Cells are used to measure the weight or force being exerted on lifting equipment. Our sensors are integrated into cranes, hoists, and lifting equipment to provide accurate load measurements, within safe working limits and prevent overloading. Our tension sensors are used in lifting and pulling heavy loads with cables, ropes, or chains to measure the tension in the lifting element, providing real-time feedback and safety monitoring.
Interface lifting solutions are used in equipment on construction sites, in warehouses, manufacturing and healthcare facilities, on maritime docks and for transportation use cases. Applications for our products listed above include loading and unloading goods, positioning heavy equipment or machinery, transferring patients in healthcare settings, and for lifting materials on docks and worksites. Learn more in our case study Cranes and Lifting.
Interface Digital Instrumentation product options continue to expand. Digital measurement solutions have come a long way and are growing in use and popularity due to overall trends towards digital transformation and modernization of testing labs.
Digital signals are stronger than analog signals, providing a better signal that is free from interference by things like temperature, electromagnetism, and radio signals. The data sampling rate is also much faster. As a result, load cells and other force sensors output signals transmitted to digital instrumentation can read and record hundreds of measurements in seconds. See the new additions to our Interface Digital Instrumentation Products Overview.
Why Choose a Digital Solution
Lower-cost options
Works across existing networks
It is scalable without causing interruptions
Multiple sensors can be daisy-chained together on a single cable run
