WHITE PAPER: Tactile Force Measurement for Touchscreens, Tablets, and Panels

Bolt loading can vary greatly during product testing and operational conditions enabling

premature and unexpected structural failures to occur. This makes measuring and verifying bolt preloading essential to compensate for the unloading that naturally occurs overtime. In addition, depending on testing and operating conditions, knowledge of how bolt load changes overtime is necessary for lightweight and efficient structures. Depending on certain design choices, verification of bolt preload and load change is critical.

Servo Motor Torque Control

Automated systems in a variety of different industries rely on servo motors to monitor linear and rotational motion. Frictional loss and motor speed change necessitate the inclusion of a closed loop control system. To accomplish this, place a reaction torque sensor between the servo gearbox and its mounting location to measure the generated torque.

Die Attach Force Measurement

Semiconductor chips are fragile devices prior to packaging and require delicate handing. During Through-Silicon Via (TSV), eutectic, epoxy, or solder based die attach processes, consistent force must be applied to the the chip. Incorrect force application causes broken chips and incomplete bonds. Load cells incorporated into the die attach tooling enables closed loop con...

Auditing Robotic Prosthetics

They say to make an omelet you need to break a few eggs. Of course, it helps when the eggs are broken into the bowl, and not broken in the carton prior to taking them out.

With advancements in prosthetics allowing fine motor control driven by a patient’s nervous systems, the use of miniature load cells placed at grip points help observe a wide variety of operating conditions the patient requires from their prosthetic every day.
