The Kistler 9281B multi-component force measuring plate.

The outputs of the four 3-component force sensors are internally combined into 8 channels to allow force and torque measurements in all three axes. The following parameters can be measured and or calculated using Kistler's BioWare software (not included) or other force platform software:

Force and moment measurements in all three axes

Coordinates of the center of pressure (COP), coefficient of friction

Vertical (frictional) torque (Tz, torque about center of pressure)

Power and energy

Movement of center of mass in all three axes

Included are the force platform (Serial Number: 571645), a complete set of charge amplifiers in one small box (Kistler Model 9865C Charge Amplifiers), and a 10 meter cable needed to operate the force platform. According to the previous owner this force measuring system was working and providing good data within the last year.

Condition: The platform and electronics appear to be in excellent condition. We have recently tested the system and guarantee the everything works.

Technical Data on the 9281C (the current version of this plate) is available on line at Kistler's website at:
