Standard FlexiForce Sensors for Force Measurement

FlexiForce force sensors are ultra-thin and flexible printed circuits, which can be easily integrated into force measurement applications. These sensors are available for purchase in our online store.

FlexiForce^® sensors are utilized in many applications to: 

• Detect and measure a relative change in force or applied load
• Detect and measure the rate of change in force
• Identify force thresholds and trigger appropriate action
• Detect contact and/or touch

FlexiForce Sensor Definition

FlexiForce: (Noun) Pronunciation: flex e fôrs

1. a: a versatile, durable piezoresistive force sensor that can be made in a variety of shapes and sizes; b: a piezoresistive sensing device in which resistance is inversely proportional to applied force; 

2. a customizable force sensor and economical force measurement tool that is easily integrated into OEM products;

3. a: a patented, ultra-thin (0.008 in.), flexible printed circuit that senses contact force; b: a force and load sensor that is available in varying force ranges and standard models (A201, A301, A401, HT201, ESS301), suiting a variety of applications for research and product development/testing
