What Happens When You Overshoot a Test Point? Various calibration laboratories use hydraulic, screw, and other force calibration machines where it is difficult not to overshoot a test point. By talking about overshooting a test point, we are referring to loading past the desired point and then letting the creep in the hydraulic system naturally […]
Software for reading two indicators at the same time V1.3.5: Force calibration software for use with Morehouse 4215, HADI, or DSC-USB Indicators. Read two indicators at the same time. The software uses coefficients from ASTM E74 calibration and displays engineering units as well as capturing data with a remote control device and pausing readings etc.., Reporting […]
The Top 5 Costly Force Measurement Mistakes #1 of 5 Costly force measurement mistakes Most calibration laboratories will say a device is "In Tolerance" without considering the uncertainty of their measurement process. This equates to you not using a calibration laboratory that has standards to meet your needs and accounts for measurement risk properly. Most […]

PEAK HOLD and new windows 8/10 drivers on this version. Inverse B0 coefficients. If you enjoyed this content, check out our LinkedIn and YouTube channel for more […]
Three essential components to making better torque measurements Presenting a Tutorial at NCSL International Presenting a Tutorial at NCSL Step 1. Write an abstract and state the learning objective. The abstract is the summary of the class. The learning objectives are concise statements about what students will be able to do when they complete […]
Easy to Use Tool for Calculating Expanded Uncertainty Per Point at the time of Calibration Want to know how we are calculating expanded uncertainty on force and torque certificates? This spreadsheet has all of the formulas that comply with ILAC-P14:09/2020 ILAC Policy for Measurement Uncertainty in Calibration at the time of calibration. The calculation for […]
How to Calibrate Button Load Cells and Achieve Solid Results How to Calibrate Button Load Cells - Intro Anyone who has tried calibrating button-type load cells knows they do not repeat well in the rotation. The sensitivity to off-axis or side-loading conditions is quite high. High enough that 0.1 % of misalignment will produce a […]
The ASTM E74 Coefficient Calculator is free software from Morehouse to help calculate higher-order coefficients per ASTM E74 and ISO 376. E74 Coefficient Calculator contains macros because it uses visual basic coding to generate the coefficients.

Proving Ring Tare Load Correction Proof This blog post is on the strange side. I was rummaging through some of the work I did back in 1999 and found a proving ring tare load correction proof. I probably never published it as we were all waiting for the world to end at the turn of […]
