Topaq^® is a revolutionary stress measurement instrument for analyzing force distribution and magnitude. Topaq^®'s user-friendly Windows based software enables the characterization of how force is disbursed in any process or assembly where two surfaces contact or impact. Sensor Products Inc. is a world leader in the design and manufacture of sensor systems exclusively for tactile pressure monitoring and analysis.

A World of Uses

Sensor Products Inc. draws on over ten years of experience to continuously extend the capabilities of tactile pressure management. With the introduction of Topaq^®, engineers now have a truly affordable tool of unparalleled power and accuracy. Whether your function is R&D, design or quality assurance, Topaq^® improves yield, ensures parallelism, registers the precise characteristics of an impact, validates press uniformity and aids in all types of machine calibration.

What is the Topaq^® System?

Topaq^® consists of a specially calibrated densitimetric scanner and Windows software. An essential component of the Topaq® system is the force indicating film commonly known as Fujifilm Prescale^®. These sensor films change coloration permanently and instantaneously in response to pressure being applied to them. The Topaq^® scanner and software is then used to image and interpret the stress marks on the film. From this, Topaq^® renders high resolution, color calibrated images and a wealth of statistical information pertaining to the analyzed film.

Any situation in your manufacturing process or R&D center where there are two objects or surfaces coming into contact, is an opportunity for Topaq^® to perform.

Unlike FEA, Topaq^® is a post-process interpretive system that actually collects data from a proprietary tactile transducer.

Powerfully Simple to Use

While Topaq^® is equipped with an extensive array of features, you can perform a simple analysis in a matter of minutes. The system makes it extremely easy for a new user to extract and utilize important information. Simply scan in your exposed pressure indicating film, key in a few input variables, and Topaq^® instantly generates full-color pressure maps and accompanying statistical data. Even more, Topaq^® is accurate to within ± 4% - unprecedented in the field of tactile pressure measurement.
