Product catalog summary
Product Overview
Bertec's FP4060-15-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, making it suitable for diverse applications.
Design and Features
The force plate includes precision-engineered 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 three external amplifiers: digital, analog, or a combination of both. The system supports long output cables up to 100m without signal degradation and offers plug-and-play installation. Digital output connects directly to a PC's USB port, while analog output options include BNC type or bare wire outputs. An SDK is available for custom software development.

Force Plate FP4060-15-TM-1

Force Plate FP4060-15-TM Product Details and Specifications Bertec’s FP4060-15-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 - Top-mount - 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
