Tekscan, Inc. Tactile Pressure Measurement System I-Scan® Evolution™

Description
Evolution™ Standard USB Used for standard applications, this system is lightweight and versatile. The Evolution scanning electronics consist of a handle that connects to a sensor and to the USB port of a PC. Multiple handles may be used simultaneously. Indicators on the handle show system status and allow some control of data collection. I-Scan™ is a powerful tool that accurately measures and analyzes interface pressure between virtually any two surfaces, utilizing a thin and flexible sensor. The system is comprised of data acquisition electronics, sensors, and software. There are many different options for data acquisition electronics, standard and custom sensors, and software add-ons, which make the I-Scan system extremely versatile, creating endless possibilities for applications. Over 200 flexible, thin fi lm sensors are available in different sizes, shapes, resolutions, temperature ratings, and pressure ranges (up to 25,000 psi or 1,700 bar). High spatial resolution: – Up to 248 sensing elements/cm2 (1,600 sensing elements/in2) – Sensing elements with as narrow as 0.1 mm (0.02 in.) spacing Sensing area ranging from 3 mm x 3 mm (.12 in. x .12 in.) up to 1,734 mm x 1,768 mm (68 in. x 69 in.) Optional high-temp sensors can withstand up to 200°C (392°F) Large high resolution sensors with multiple tabs require cross handle scanning. This requires VersaTek electronics, capable of having multiple handles coordinated in scanning the sensing area Fully customized sensors can be manufactured
