• Force vectors don’t want to remain in line with the object being pushed. • Load-cell specifications usually do not call out accuracy, but rather linearity, repeatability, and hysteresis. • Accuracy ...

Step onto any household or commercial weighing scale, and suddenly your weight magically appears in neat digital numbers. But how does a simple platform know exactly how much you weigh down to a tenth ...

This video shows the applications of load cell Xforce from Zwick. It can bear the load from 5 N to 250 kN. The Xforce load cells are ideal for tensile, compression and flexural/bending testing as well ...

During manufacturing or converting processes, material is generally pulled off a roll, processed, and rewound — in sections called unwind, intermediate, and rewind zones, respectively. Knowing the ...

Weight translates to money when it comes to the airline industry. Every additional pound requires more fuel to lift, so making sure there is sufficient gas in the tanks means knowing what the aircraft ...

Several circuits will be presented that use the CS3001/02/11/12 operational amplifiers with CS5510/11/12/13 ADCs. The combination yields very high performance at relatively low power. Several circuits ...
