Hydraulic Hand Pump It is the standard system for generating the hydraulic pressure for several Morehouse Calibrating Machines. It does not need an electric power source to operate. It has two speeds of operation to control the applied force to the force standard and unit under test. It offers a vernier for fine control of […]
Converting a mV/V Load Cell Signal into Engineering Units is a common need in the industry. This paper discusses the pros and cons of how meters handle Converting a mV/V Load Cell Signal into Engineering Units. The paper discusses significant error sources and best practices for using an indicator with a mV/V signal, and we […]
Load Cell Loading: Thread Engagement Errors Morehouse has covered this topic in previous videos and blogs. However, it is important enough to write another blog about thread engagement. Why is it important? In a typical female thread design, the modeling is done with “assumptions” on the thread engagement. A standard rule is to assume the […]
5 In 1 Force Verification System Monitoring your process by putting practices in place to ensure that your measurements are accurate is essential to limiting your risk and keeping your bottom line intact. A good, stable Morehouse Force Verification System can be used to do the following: Force Verification. Have you ever questioned if your […]

The True Cost of Long Force Calibration Lead Time How much revenue are you sacrificing when you do not have your equipment? What is the True Cost of Long Force Calibration Lead Times? How much is lost from not being able to turn our force calibration equipment around for your customers? Do you end up […]
ILC Force Calibration Rental Kit We want to help you make better force measurements. Our goal is to provide a very low overall uncertainty for direct comparison with this ILC Force Kit. The low uncertainty allows for a more robust method to ensure laboratories meet their claimed CMC uncertainties. An easy-to-use Morehouse ILC worksheet is […]
Why a 4 to 1 TUR is Not Enough: The Importance of Analyzing the Probability of False Accept Risk: Several organizations and publications reference or insist on maintaining a 4 to 1 TUR (Test Uncertainty Ratio) without understanding the level of risk that they may be subjecting themselves to. The general thought is that if […]
A common question we get asked is, “If I have a tare weight, how do I correct it?” Thus, we are going to answer the question by discussing how to Correct for Tare Weight when using Load Cells or Proving Rings. All instruments have different characteristics that may or may not require correction for the […]
