Pressure mapping data provides engineers with insight into their rolls that allows them to evaluate the efficiency and performance of their machine and process. Proper pressure distribution between rolls allows for an efficient manufacturing process and the production of a uniform product.

The Nip Pressure Alignment Tool™ (NPAT) is used to capture nip footprints and relative pressure distribution between nip rolls. The system utilizes a sensor made up of an array of thin and flexible pressure sensitive bands, which can be configured to match the size of your application.
