Budget Load Cell Tests: Load Cell Shoulder Loading Errors

Budget Load Cell Tests: Load Cell Shoulder Loading Errors  Morehouse has previously addressed load cell shoulder loading errors and thread engagement in videos and articles. Here, we investigate the results of a simple design change we incorporated into our BLC series. Specifically, what occurs if an adapter is removed and the load is applied directly […]

Amplified Load Cells (4-20mA, 0 -10 VDC) made Easy

Amplified Load Cells (4-20mA, 0 -10 VDC) Amplified load cells are specialized force measurement devices that integrate a built-in signal conditioning system, outputting a standardized 4-20mA or 0-10VDC signal. These load cells are widely used in industrial applications where robust, noise-resistant, and long-distance transmission is required. Unlike traditional load cells, which output a low-level millivolt […]

The Difference Between Force and Mass

, 
Force, Mass, and Weight: What is the Difference? Force, mass, and weight are related concepts in physics, yet they are distinct and often misunderstood. Introduction to Difference Between Force, Mass, and Weight Figure 1. NBS Document Regarding Force Calibration Services   I recently read an old NBS unpublished Provisional Document of "The Force Calibration Service" […]

Load Cell Accuracy: What is Hysteresis?

What is Hysteresis? Almost any load cell specification sheet has a term called Hysteresis. This particular article hopes to explain what the term load cell hysteresis is. Load Cell Accuracy: Simple Definition In a simplistic sense, hysteresis is a way to measure how well a load cell returns to its starting point when force is […]

Load Cell Accuracy: What is Static Error Band?

What is Static Error Band (SEB)? Almost any load cell specification sheet has a term called static Error Band. The term itself can be used to describe one of many accuracy specifications  found on a load cell specification sheet. This particular article hopes to explain what the term Static Error Band is. Load Cell Accuracy: […]
