C705P Digital Indicator The C705P Digital Indicator is a standalone unit that does not require additional software, load tables, or computers to use the B coefficients and solve for Force. The Morehouse C705P can store coefficients used to predict load cell deflection values throughout the calibrated range. The polynomial equation, fitted to calibration data […]
Mass to Force Guidance: Using mass weights not adjusted for force can result in a large measurement error. The two major measurement parameters typically affected are force and torque. Any measurement involving force should use force. There are acceptable formulas for correcting mass weights to force to enable companies who use mass for these applications […]
Tension Link Calibration (3 Easy Steps to Yield Repeatable Results) Tension Link Calibration requires advanced knowledge of the calibration process to pass an instrument. There will be additional errors if there is any variation in the adapters used for calibration. Here at Morehouse, we have done testing using different pin sizes and adapters. Forged pins, […]
