This month, we introduced an easy-to-use resource to help find essential introductory topics related to all things force measurement. The new Force Measurement 101 Series highlights subjects including types of force measurement testing,
various models of load cells and instrumentation. We also provide reference materials related to more technical topics like strain gages, mounting plates, accessories, specialty sensors, and calibration systems.
NEW! INTERFACE FORCE MEASUREMENT 101 GUIDE
Each section of the new guide features a quick link to the featured 101 Series IQ Blog post, as well as product information, use cases, and video content when available. With new posts added regularly, bookmark this page for a quick reference. Read more the new Interface 101 Series.
Here are just a few our most popular 101 Series IQ Blog posts.
INTERFACE SOLUTIONS USED FOR TESTING CONSUMER PRODUCT GOODS
Interface has a long history in providing load cells and sensor technologies for consumer product goods (CPG) applications. Our load cells are commonplace throughout the entire product lifecycle, from early-stage prototype testing through distribution. CPG makers use force measurement solutions to help predict failure and identify design challenges before these goods are available to consumers.
Interface’s force measurement solutions play a vital role in R&D, design, production, and packaging. The CPG industry uses sensor data
to assess product usability, capabilities, and durability. The more data, the greater the opportunity to adjust and ensure the product is a direct fit. Precision in this process improves performance and influences adoption. Read more here.
CPG Applications Using Interface Test & Measurement Solutions
Usability research
Material testing for durability
Product safety testing
Embedding sensors for user feedback
Designing IoT and smart home devices
Manufacturing production line testing and robotics
NEW EVENT! RUGGEDIZED TEST & MEASUREMENT SOLUTIONS NOV 15
The upcoming virtual seminar focuses on Interface products designed and fabricated for rugged use cases and withstanding environmental stresses. Register here.
During the Ruggedized Test & Measurement Solutions event, Ken Bishop and Elliot Speidell will explore products used for testing in harsh environments, as well as products used for performance monitoring under extreme conditions. We will dive into different load cells, load pins, torque transducers, instrumentation and accessories used in structural and material testing, fatigue and cycle testing, changing environments, and submersible situations.
Topics we will discuss during the live event on Tuesday, November 15 at 9:00 AM Pacific include:
Defining Ruggedized
Environmental Stresses and Harsh Condition Categories
Standards and Ratings
Structural and Material Options
Ruggedized Test and Measurement Devices
Sealed Products and Enclosures
Extreme Temperatures and Cycling
Exposure to Moisture and Submersibles
Test and Measurement Applications Using Ruggedized Products
