From measurement to analysis

Precise sensors are indispensable for reliable measuring results. However, the signal cannot in itself provide the information needed by the user. There must be a measuring system, proceed- ing from the sensor via the connecting cable and charge amplifier to the soft- ware analysis and process data docu- mentation. Only when this combination is in place is it possible to fully utilize the information obtained.
Measuring systems consisting of sen- sors, charge amplifiers and evaluation electronics constitute entire systems for process analysis, monitoring, opti- mization, visualization and documen- tation. Kistler‘s intelligent systems are the basis for process and product innovation for users in research and industry 20
