(Video) What are Tekscan's Top-6 Most Popular Pressure Mapping Sensors?

Tekscan offers over 200 standard pressure mapping sensors, which can be a bit intimidating if you're just familiarizing yourself with our technology and its capabilities. Over time, however, we've noticed that certain of our sensor designs tend to lend themselves better to a broader range of general purpose pressure mapping applications. There are variety of reasons behind this, including sensing area specs, pressure ranges, operating capabilities, and others. 

And many sensors are well designed for specific industries and common customer applications.

After tallying the numbers, here are our Top 6 Most Popular I-Scan standard sensor designs

 

 

Key appications: Compression Testing, Battery Pressure Measurement, Nip Roll Uniformity, Automotive Door Seal, Chemical-Mechanical Polishing (CMP), Heat Sink Assembly, and more!
