Pressure mapping technology

A pressure mapping system is a niche test and measurement system utilizing a thin and flexible sensor, dubbed as “electronic skin”, to measure pressure distribution and interface pressure between two contacting surfaces. The results can be transmitted wirelessly or via USB to Windows-based software and displayed in pseudo-color to indicate the magnitude. The Tactilus software is equipped with advanced mathematical algorithms that can eliminate noises to ensure accurate signal for interpretation.

We offer highly sensitive matrix-based tactile sensors that can be used for measurement applications from 0.007ar to 14 bar. The sensors are pre-calibrated and traceable to NIST standards. Tactilus system can also be customized to conform to various shapes including door seals, seats, wipers, tires, heat sealing machines, wheelchairs, mattresses, between rollers and many more.

Key applications in the industry:

  • Aerospace: composites, fuel cells, coating lamination
  • Packaging: nip impression, heat sealing
  • Ergonomics: biomechanics, body mapping
  • Automotive: brake pads, clamping, clutch, bolted joint
