Force Plate FP4060-08-TM

Product catalog summary
Product Overview: The Bertec FP4060-08-TM force plate is designed for analyzing various movements such as gait, balance, jump, and running. It utilizes strain gage technology and advanced electronics to provide precise measurements.
Design and Features: The force plate includes strain gage load transducers that measure six components: three orthogonal forces and moments about each axis. It features a built-in 16-bit digital gain amplifier and signal conditioning unit, eliminating the need for calibration matrices. Users can choose from digital, analog, or combined amplifiers, allowing for long output cables up to 100m without signal degradation. The digital output connects directly to a PC via USB, facilitating easy installation and setup. The analog output offers six BNC type outputs or seven bare wire outputs. An SDK is available for custom software development.
Unique Features: The force plate offers a 1000 Hz sampling frequency, high resolution with minimized crosstalk, documented accuracy with minimal drift, and options for top-mount or foot-mount. It supports load ranges of 5,000 N, 10,000 N, and 20,000 N, with 100% digital encoding to prevent signal interference. It comes with a seven-year warranty on hardware and electronics.
Technical Specifications: The FP4060-08-TM is available in models with varying load capacities. Dimensions are consistent across models, with a width of 400 mm, length of 600 mm, and height of 83 mm. The maximum load capacities vary by model, with Fz loads up to 10,000 N and Fx, Fy loads up to 5,000 N. The natural frequencies for Fx and Fy are 300 Hz, and 450 Hz for Fz. The static resolution is ±0.4 N, and the resolution per LSB is 0.2 or 0.4 N. Linearity and accuracy errors are minimal, with shear and vertical crosstalk at 0.1% AL.
Mounting Options: The force plate can be mounted using top or foot mount options, with specific dimensions and bolt requirements for each method.

Force Plate FP4060-08-TM-1

Force Plate FP4060-08-TM Product Details and Specifications Bertec’s FP4060-08-TM model is widely used for analysis of gait, balance, jump, running and many other movements. Strain gage technology, state-ofthe-art electronics, innovative mechanical design, and quality manufacturing have created superior force plates suitable for a variety of applications. Unique Features Each force plate consists of precision-engineered, strain gage load transducers that precisely measure six components: three orthogonal forces and the moments about each axis. Each plate contains a built-in, 16-bit digital gain amplifier and signal conditioning unit, which make the use of calibration matrices obsolete. You then have the choice of three external amplifiers: digital, analog, or digital and analog in one. This system allows the use of long output cables (up to 100m) without any signal degradation. The digital output can be directly plugged into your PC’s USB port. Simple installation and a minimum amount of setup time result from this plug and play technology. For the analog output, you have the choice of either six individual BNC type outputs or seven individual bare wire outputs (custom output cables available per request). Digital acquire is offered to enable quick data collection. Bertec offers an SDK solution for researchers who want to develop and use their own software. - 1000 Hz sampling frequency - Superb resolution with minimized crosstalk - Documented, superior accuracy, with minimal drift - Both top-mount and footmount options available - Available in load ranges of 5,000 N, 10,000 N, and 20,000 N - No signal interference from out-side sources with 100% digital encoding - Strongest industry warranty: seven years on hardware and electronics! 2500 Citygate Drive Columbus, Ohio 43219 bertec.com
