Using Tactile Sensors to Improve a Manufacturing Process

In manufacturing, the trend towards ever tightening process tolerances and productivity improvements drives the need for more accurate and more sensitive pressure measurements. 

Furthermore, tighter tolerances mean more than just having to make complex measurements; it also means that the processes creating the components are harder to control. Because process control can only be accomplished with reliable data, getting this data makes taking measurements on the components more difficult as well. In turn, more capable instruments are required to make those measurements.

Our high temperature, high pressure, ultra sensitive sensors can provide these measurements with unmatched repeatability.

Case Studies:
The following are examples of how our clients have used our industrial-grade systems to improve their manufacturing or quality control processes:
