Tekscan Grip System

Tekscan Grip System

Grip System - Determine the force with which the human hand grips objects.

Pressure Mapping Technology

Measures the pressure between two surfaces using a thin, flexible sensor. The resulting data and Tekscan analysis tools provide insights to improve product design, production, quality, and testing.

Contact-based Grip Force and Pressure Measurement

The Grip™ System measures and evaluates static and dynamic pressures of gripped objects. Grip measures interface pressure for human hand and finger gripping applications to assess comfort, design, and ergonomics. The system is used to improve design for a more ergonomic product, study carpal tunnel syndrome and repetitive motion syndrome, or analyze human grip on various tools and sports equipment. It is an ideal tool for gathering important information and insights to improve product design, production, quality, and testing.

Grip System Configurations

The Grip System is available with or without a tether for increased mobility and measurement range. Your specific application will determine the most appropriate type of connection.

Each VersaTek™-based system uses specially designed scanning electronics called cuffs. The cuffs connect to the sensor to collect data, which is then processed and sent to a computer via USB. The VersaTek electronics operate at the highest speeds and are compatible with other VersaTek sensors, allowing for the addition of shoe, prosthetic, grip, seating, and positioning capabilities to the Tekscan system.

Grip Sensor - 4256E

Grip Sensor Model 4256E The Grip™ system uses a thin, high-resolution sensor that can be used directly on the hand or embedded in a glove. Each sensor has eighteen sensing areas that can be individually positioned over important anatomical sections of the fingers and palm. The gaps between sensing areas allow for joints to be bypassed, free to move, and uninterrupted grip measurement. Each sensing area has multiple sensing elements (Sensels™) to locally identify pressure points on the hand.

Types of Tekscan pressure mapping systems:

- I-Scan
Measure and analyze the interfacial pressure between any two surfaces. Many applications, such as energy storage.

- In-Depth Tire Analysis
Improve tire design from the inside and out with systems that analyze static and dynamic tire footprints, as well as tire bead seating and sealing.

- BPMS (Body pressure)
Optimize designs for bedding, padding, positioning and seating.

- Nip Measurement
Checking the uniformity of the pressure rollers and eliminating errors in machine settings.

- Grip System
Determining the force with which the human hand grips objects.

- Wiper System
Assessing the profiles of the pressure force on the wipers and the pressure distribution at the contact.
