Torque Transducer Bending Error on Single-ended Arms: CW CCW Torque Test Torque transducer bending error can be one of the most underestimated contributors in single-ended-arm torque calibration. If you calibrate torque transducers on a single-ended arm and you have not characterized the bending error, your uncertainty budget may be significantly off. In our worked example […]

Bad Load Cell Setup: Specific Load Cell Examples, Common Errors, and What to Watch for by Load Cell Type A Bad Load Cell Setup almost never starts with the readout. It starts with the mechanical load path, meaning alignment, adapters, thread engagement, and contact surfaces. When those are not controlled, you introduce off-axis forces such […]
