FAQ Industrial Application

What is a pressure sensor and pressure mapping system?

A pressure sensor is an electronic device that measures force applied over a defined
area. A pressure mapping system combines one or more pressure sensors with
electronics and dedicated software to measure, visualize, and analyze pressure
distribution between contacting surfaces.

How does a pressure mapping system work?

Thin electronic sensors are positioned between contacting surfaces. When pressure
is applied, the sensors convert mechanical load into electrical signals, which are
processed by software to generate pressure maps and quantitative measurement
data.

What are the main applications of pressure mapping systems?

They are used in component assembly, quality control, machinery maintenance,
product design, packaging, sealing, printing, medical devices, automotive,
aerospace, and more.

What are the key benefits of using electronic pressure measurement systems?

  • Objective and quantitative pressure measurement
  • High accuracy and repeatability
  • Real-time data visualization and recording
  • Digital data storage and reporting
  • Flexible sensor designs for custom applications

Which industries use pressure mapping systems?

Pressure sensors and pressure mapping systems are used across automotive,
aerospace, medical, manufacturing, packaging, electronics, sports science,
ergonomics, and research industries.
