Thanks to an innovative use of film technology, the calibration of pressure among machining units is now a "patch job."
Pressurex Pressure Points tactile force indicating films represent a method of utilizing Pressurex sensor film. The sensor films were developed as a tool for assessing compressive magnitude and distribution between contacting or impacting surfaces and applications exist for both machine/component inspection and calibration.
Each Pressure Point sensor film comes pre-packaged in a ready-to-use blister-sealed pouch. The small, circular patches are available in sizes ranging from 0.3 (0.8 cm) to 1[sim] (2.5 cm) diameter. The pouch has a ...
