Case Study: Peratech achieves scalable high-quality force sensor testing with National Instruments

Going Beyond the Sensor Peratech’s Force Test Technology to Deliver High-Quality Sensors

Peratech, a developer of force-sensing technology, faced the challenge of ensuring every sensor it produced met precise performance specifications for its customers. The company needed a rigorous, automated, and scalable testing solution that could reliably characterize sensor performance across a wide range of forces to guarantee quality in mass production.

National Instruments provided the solution using its CompactDAQ hardware and LabVIEW software. This allowed Peratech to implement a system that tests every sensor in under five seconds, collecting vast amounts of data to produce complete performance curves. The results included improved testing time and cost, deep insight into sensor performance, and the ability to give customers absolute confidence that every purchased sensor would perform as needed.
