Pressure sensors monitor seat production

LX100 pressure sensors allow automotive seat engineers to monitor and produce consistent car seats that meet design specifications and standards.

Xsensor Technology Corporation's LX100 pressure sensor allows researchers and automotive test engineers to monitor quality control in production and compare production line seats to their originally intended design.

LX100 pressure sensors allow automotive seat engineers to monitor and produce consistent car seats that meet design specifications and standards.

Engineers can take pressure images from their original approved design and compare them to pressure image profiles of seats coming off the production line.

Karl Schilling, General Manager of Automotive Testing at Xsensor Technology Corporation said, "They have no accurate way of knowing if the production process is meeting the design standards created for the seat".

"Our sensor technology helps them monitor and evaluate production quality in real time".

The LX100 provides advanced calibration stability, low hysteresis and consistent performance.

Tests for the LX100 have yielded 1.3% or less hysteresis error (full-scale) and 5% or less creep error at one hour with 138mbar applied.

Users will also appreciate the LX sensor's exceptional calibration stability; measured test values showed a 5% or less difference at 138mbar after 100,000 cycles.

Though ideal for design, current sensors in the automotive test market are rarely used in a production-line environment because their limitations prevent them from yielding repeatable, accurate results after a high number of cycles.

Xsensor's LX100 sensor eliminates such boundaries, providing consistent and repeatable data over tens of thousands of trials.
