Digital Force Gauge Retrofit Options for Existing Morehouse Analog-Type Force Gauges Morehouse Instrument Company has introduced new types of Digital Force Gauges and digital force gauge retrofit options. These new digital gauges offer improved performance and accuracy specifications such as: At 0.5 % of full scale, the new or upgraded digital force gauge is two […]
Why the Location of the Measurement is More Important than You May Realize Calling an instrument “In Tolerance” is about the location, location, and location of the measurement. It’s also about the uncertainty of the measurement, but a bad location will raise the Probability of False Accept (PFA) significantly. The Probability of False Accept is […]
Quick and Easy: Pull Your Force Calibration Data from Anywhere Using Your Smartphone Morehouse puts QR codes on calibration stickers so you can pull your data from your smartphone and our customers love it! Why we decided to go with QR codes About two years ago we decided our calibration certificates and lab software needed […]
How to Make Load Cells Perform Better - 3 Benefits of Installing a Threaded Adapter on Load Cells How to make load cells perform better. #1. The output of the load cell is more repeatable - When forces are applied to the load cell, the values obtained during calibration should repeat within the expected performance […]

The Morehouse Portable Force Calibrator features the following: 1. High Stability and Fine Control - Control the force application by as little as 0.005 lbf. […]
The Importance of Torque Control At the beginning of the year, we discussed the proper way to express torque units. This blog is going to discuss the importance of torque control. Torque = Force x Length this means the expression of lbf in or N m is the correct way to express torque. Those manufacturers […]
Load Cell Creep The band Radiohead has a song called "Creep", it’s a good song. Really good, it’s true. This blog post relates nothing to that song. In our world of load cells, there are three definitions relating to load cell creep. We typically discuss two of them in our force workshops; hence you will […]
