Ensuring uniform surface pressure is essential for achieving consistent, reliable results. Without controlled pressure values at the surface, it becomes challenging to assess equipment alignment or detect any directional pressure trends, both of which can lead to product defects.
This is where the "Prescale" pressure measurement film plays a crucial role.
What is Prescale pressure measurement film?
Prescale, also known as "pressure indicating film," "pressure inspection film," or "pressure paper," is a specialized film that allows for the visualization and quantification of surface pressure. By simply placing the film between two contact surfaces, users can easily measure and analyze pressure distribution across the area, gaining valuable insights into uniformity and intensity of the applied pressure. It enable engineers and quality control specialists to detect, evaluate, and address issues related to uniformity and distribution of pressure in various applications, such as laminating, bonding, and component assembly. By visualizing the pressure distribution between two surfaces this provides simple and visual insight into contact pressure and contact patterns in applications where accurate pressure measurements are critical.
-
Improves quality controlDetects pressure distribution flaws before they become larger issues in production.
-
Reduces material wasteBy ensuring accurate assembly and bonding, less material is wasted due to errors.
-
Enhances product longevityProducts assembled with even pressure distribution are often more durable and perform better.
-
Cost savingsMinimizes errors and the need for rework, leading to cost-effective production.
How to use Prescale
- Simply cut the film or sheets to the required shape
- Place it between the surfaces to be measured, and apply pressure.
- After removing the film, the pressure distribution and intensity will be visible, providing an immediate, clear visualization of the applied surface pressure.
Fujifilm Prescale Mobile Solution
Fujifilm offers a Prescale Mobile solution, which enhances the usability of its traditional pressure-sensitive films by integrating digital mobile analysis. Prescale Mobile is designed to streamline pressure distribution analysis on-the-go, using a mobile app and device connectivity to analyze and interpret results directly from smartphones or tablets.
