In the highly competitive and rapidly evolving automotive industry, design engineers and researchers must relentlessly pursue technology to help them drive enhancements in performance, efficiency, safety, and quality.

Interface pressure measurement offers an in-depth understanding of the relationship between two surfaces in contact, revealing otherwise unseen data. The resulting insights can help drive decisions that:

• Validate design integrity
• Ensure proper sealing & fit
• Optimize manufacturing process
• Decrease costs

This eBook dives into what pressure mapping is, how it works, and how engineers and R&D teams leverage it to:

• analyze tire tread
• verify fuel stack assembly 
• optimize and test battery designs
• validate door seals
• predict brake pad wear patterns
• assess seat design/comfort
