 AMTI Optima Force Plate Brochure-3

AMTI’s patented precision calibration is an exacting process involving up to 4000 measurements taken along a high-density grid that covers the entire platform’s surface. Multiple loads are applied at up to 400 locations using a precision machine capable of maintaining absolute positioning accuracy of 0.005 mm (certified by The Association for Manufacturing Technology). First, live loads from 50 pounds to full scale capacity are applied across the top and sides of the force plate. Next, “NIST traceable” dead weights of 50, 100, and 200 pounds (accurate to 0.01%) are used to verify the system’s...
