Multicomponent Force Plate for Biomechanics - 9281C

This multicomponent piezoelectric force plate for biomechanics measures ground reaction forces, moments and center of pressure (COP) in biomechanics.

Owing to the force plate's ideal dimensions, large measuring range and high natural frequency, in can be used in basic research (to accommodate particularly varied, demanding requirements) and athletics (fast processes) for a wide variety of different tasks.


Slimline Multicomponent Force Plate for Biomechanics – 9286A

This portable multicomponent piezoelectric force plate for biomechanics measures ground reaction forces, moments and center of pressure (COP) in biomechanics.

The simplistic set-up of the system results in significantly lower installed costs as compared to traditional force plate systems. It offers application and site flexibility previously unavailable while obtaining the superior accuracy, linearity, multiple ranging capability and rugged design inherent to piezoelectric force plate technology.


Quattro Jump
Benchmarking by Measuring take-off Power Exactly

The Quattro Jump Test

In collaboration with leading experts (Dr. Carmelo Bosco, Prof Edgar Stussi and others) Kistler has developed a test, suitable for routine performance diagnostics.

In the Quattro Jump Test the athlete makes a series of standardized jumps each of which is used for assessing a give issue and can be represented in detail and recorded in a report.

The following jump types are possible.

  • Different Squat Jumps
  • Countermovement Jump
  • Drop Jump planned
  • Different Continuous Jumps
  • Isometric Contraction Test

Thanks to the displayed graphs and intelligent software algorithms, incorrect jumps are identified immediately and can be deleted at any time.
