Load Cell Transitioning from One Mode to Another. Does it Make a Difference? This post will examine the effects of Load Cell Transitioning by calibrating the load cell in compression by switching to tension and then back to compression versus calibrating in tension first and then compression. We will determine if there is a statistical […]

Force Applications for Mass Reference Standards Our good friend, Mark Ruefenacht of Heusser Neweigh, and a Mass Metrology Instructor at NIST pointed out that most mass calibration laboratories will issue certificates of calibration only listing conventional mass (unless True Mass is requested). Force Applications for Mass may create some confusion for those trying to convert […]
Force Calibration Made Easy helps anyone new to metrology to understand the basics of force measurement. Even seasoned metrologists may learn something new from force calibration for beginners part 1. Morehouse Instrument Company has shared tremendous knowledge throughout the years with blogs, technical papers, and webinars. This education aligns with our purpose to create a […]
