New Updated ergoPAK Measurement Sensors with Software Update Now Offers Totally Wireless Solution For Ergonomic, Engineering and Research Testing And Data Collection
Salt Lake City, Utah (PRWEB) October 27, 2015 -- ergoPAK Portable Analysis Kit by Hoggan Scientific, LLC, is the essential tool kit for ergonomists, engineers and research professionals to measure, quantify and validate human and product performance and the workplace. Hoggan Scientific is excited to announce its new, totally wireless ergoPAK Portable Analysis Kit and FSR Force Sensing Resistor System, that makes it easier than ever to collect and analyze data under real job conditions. The new wireless update of the ergoPAK and FSR systems eliminates cables or cords that were part of the previous version, that can interfere or get in the way of testing.
The new version wireless ergoPAK Portable Analysis Kit includes a 50 lb. load cell for small force compression and pinch tests, 500 lb. load cell for medium to heavy testing, two inclinometers for angle or range of motion testing, and 2 accelerometers for Gs measurement testing. ergoPAK is Wireless with RF (radio frequency), which allows free motion & data capture within a 100 foot radius. The data collection software included with the system records and saves the data to a .csv file to view later and perform analysis of the saved tests. Additional sensors can be purchased and added to expand the standard kit to create additional analysis applications. Optional sensors – FSR’s or thin film force sensors and torque sensor are also available.
“Think of ergoPAK as a comprehensive tool kit,” says Hoggan Sales Director, Cynthia McKenna. “What's exciting about the new update, is that a device hub is no longer required to plug or connect the sensors to, and the measurement sensors are now completely wireless. This allows the user to test and capture data with the sensors without interference from cables or cords that can get in the way of testing, and the sensors can be used individually or together with other sensors in virtually any combination for real-time data capture.
“The ergoPAK Portable Analysis Tool Kit and optional sensors offer an efficient and cost effective solution to increase human, product and process efficiency,” McKenna adds.
The FDC data collection software used in conjunction with the ergoPAK Portable Analysis Kit or FSR system, as well as with the microFET and ergoFET testing and evaluation products, has also been enhanced. The updates to the software offer more versatility, functionality and feedback information. New enhancements to the FDC software include: Recall/open saved tests in software, large numerical readout display option in addition to real time graphical data display, audible prompts for loss of wireless signal, configurable start and stop conditions, and additional statistical calculation output information.
Major companies worldwide in the automotive, aerospace and defense, consumer products, food processing, warehousing, and other industrial manufacturing industries, as well as universities and labs utilize ergoPAK’s technology for ergonomics, research, product development, engineering, consulting, and human movement evaluation testing. FDC Software in conjunction with ergoPAK Portable Analysis Kit assessment measurement equipment provides objective, accurate and quantifiable data to assist in the evaluation, analysis and recommendations for ergonomic assessments, work-place design, risk management solutions, and design and validation of products.
