Pressure Mapping for EV Design Design differences and challenges for the next generation of EVs can be quite different than existing design for internal combustion vehicles. In addition to the core battery stack assembly and design, pressure mapping system analysis is key to many different aspects...

Whether you’re designing batteries for electric vehicles, industrial systems, or consumer electronics, your goals remain the same: maximize performance, extend lifespan, and ensure safety. Achieving those goals requires understanding how pressure and temperature behave throughout the battery...

Battery formation is a pivotal stage in the manufacture of batteries, determining their performance and longevity. This process involves the initial electrochemical transformation of raw materials, shaping the battery's efficiency and stability. Through controlled charge and discharge cycles, the...

Walkway™ Assesses Bovine Knee Replacement David Anderson, DVM, used Tekscan's Walkway™ animal gait analysis system on an 8-year-old Jersey dairy cow named Wilhelmina to determine her level of lameness post-surgery. Wilhelmina sustained a breeding injury in December 2007 when the cruciate ligament in...

Wafer Polishing Pressure Measurement Wafer or Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) requires that an even surface is achieved or subsequent manufacturing steps will be adversely affected, costing your company money. The I-Scan™ pressure mapping system provides instantaneous insight into the pressures...

Spray Pattern Pressure Measurement Challenge Distribution of the spray from a nozzle is important, but difficult to quantify. A nozzle manufacturer needs to meet their customer's needs. Selling a too high pressure nozzle might cause damage to property or injure people. Developing a low pressure...

Semiconductor Clamping Pressure Distribution Challenge Unknown clamping forces during computer chip and heat sink mounting or wafer probe testing can cause considerable product defects and quality issues. This can lead to lower yields and increased costs and product waste. Solution The I-Scan™ force...

Evaluate Grip Force For Ergonomic & Product Design Challenge In designing packaging for consumer goods, product engineers must design a product that is comfortable and easy to use for a wide demographic population, while keeping raw material and manufacturing costs low. Solution Measuring the amount...

Full Body Pressure Imaging Improves Mattress Design Designing a comfortable mattress is an on-going challenge faced by mattress manufacturers. Design engineers must be able to design a product that is comfortable for a vast population of people, while keeping manufacturing costs low. Tekscan’s Body...

Evaluate Brush-to-Wafer Contact Pressure Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) brushes are used in the semiconductor process during the post-CMP cleaning stage. Different PVA brush designs can affect wafer cleaning efficiency. Ensuring proper brush-to-wafer contact pressure and contact area is crucial in...
