When integrating embedded components like force sensors, understanding the nuances of the process is key to success. Tekscan's FlexiForce force sensing resistors are renowned for their ultra-thin and flexible design, making them ideal for a wide range of force measurement applications. To help engineers maximize the potential of these sensors, Tekscan has expanded its knowledge base with three updated guides: 

These resources have been meticulously revised to offer even more comprehensive guidance on both electrical and mechanical integration, and they are now available through the newly improved FlexiForce Integration Knowledge Base. 

Key Enhancements Include: 

  • Detailed Circuit Selection Guidance: Engineers can now access a detailed comparison of the three most commonly used circuits, complete with pros and cons to aid in circuit selection.
  • Cost-Saving Tips: The guides include practical suggestions for achieving favorable costing at scale, such as selecting sensors with lower-rated force ranges
  • Calibration Walk-Through: A clear, step-by-step calibration process is now provided, ensuring precision in sensor integration.

CEO John Jutila explains: “These updates reflect the deep expertise that Tekscan has gained from many years of collaboration with engineers and designers across various industries around the world. We are pleased to offer these comprehensive resources as part of our ongoing commitment to empower our customers to leverage innovation and excellence in force sensing technology. These documents are supplemented by our in-house Tactile Lab experts for applied system design, mechanical engineering, electronics, and software development along with robust prototyping tools.”
