Accurate grip measurement has become increasingly important in today’s world of continued ergonomic improvement. Historically, there have been limitations with grip measurement. Load cells are expensive and bulky; pressure films relay only relative measurements reflecting the maximum pressure experienced over a given sequence. For these reasons, more and more product designers and engineers are turning to FlexiForce FlexiForce force sensors are ultra-thin (0.008"), flexible, non-obtrusive printed circuits. Their construction allows for easy maneuvering and an exclusive fit, even during the most delicate of procedures. FlexiForce sensors are fully customizable to suit your unique OEM grip application. Standard sensors are also available for proof of concept, or for a quick, low quantity, R&D solution. Products & Services
Piezoelectric sensors measure the electrical potential caused by applying mechanical force to a piezoelectric material. They are used in a variety of pressure-sensing applications.
Air velocity flow sensors measure air velocity or volume flow using insertion probes or capture hoods.
Joystick controllers use potentiometric, inductive or photoelectric sensing systems and/or switches to translate joystick motion into an output signal.
Air blow guns attach to air lines for the manual actuation and/or control of air discharge. They are used primarily for debris removal and purging, non-contact part cleaning and drying, and general laboratory or industrial applications.
Tactile pressure sensors are used to detect the pressure distribution between a sensor and a target.
