ASTM E74 Load Cell Selection Guide Download the spreadsheet for ASTM E74 load cell selection spreadsheet here. Many people get confused with load cell specifications and what they mean. When a company says the load cell is accurate to 0.01 % of full scale, what does that mean? If calibrated using the ASTM E74 standard, […]
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 […]
So, how low can my load cell go? Like the Limbo, everything has a point where going lower is impossible. In this article, "How Low Can My Load Cell Go?" Morehouse Instrument Company President Henry Zumbrun provides three things to consider regarding measurement uncertainty when you ask how low your load cell can go. The […]
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 […]
Measurement Bias: What can happen when we use an accuracy specification and assume all the measurements are centered to the specification limits? Not correcting for Measurement Bias is a typical problem in the metrology community, where many papers assume a centered process or Measurement and that any known Measurement Bias has been corrected. The Morehouse […]
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 […]
An Introduction to the Differences Between ASTM E74 and ISO 376, the Two Most Recognized Force Standards: The differences Between ASTM E74 and ISO 376 can be confusing. Morehouse has been performing both ASTM E74 and ISO 376 calibrations for more than fifteen years. We have been calibrating in accordance with the ASTM E74 standard […]
