 Welcome to Kistler Instrument Corporation, your source for measuring force, pressure, acceleration and torque. Kistler manufactures piezoelectric, piezoresistive, strain gage and capacitive sensors as well as electronics, process monitors, software, calibration equipment and provides calibration services for a range of applications:
Engines: Kistler specializes in pressure sensors and systems for engine development and monitoring on the test bench, in the vehicle or in large diesel and gas engines. Their unique crystal technology provides precise data even at extreme temperatures.
Vehicles: Kistler's comprehensive range of services covers consulting, design, planning, engineering, development, construction and manufacturing of ultra modern measurement systems and facilities for automobile research and development. They specialize in wheel force sensors, crash testing sensors and systems as well as NVH testing for small passenger to off-highway vehicles from the test rig to the track and back.
Manufacturing: Kistler's force measurement technology is well suited for both research and production applications including cutting force, joining, product and process testing, cutting and forming. Not only do their sensors provide pinpoint data, but their process monitoring systems help detect issues before they occur, keeping your yield at its highest.
Plastics / Injection Molding: Mold cavity pressure systems ensure efficient, cost-effective injection molding processes and make zero-defect production possible. Highly-dynamic sensors measure the most important process variables in the injection molding machine while their process monitoring systems make zero-defect production a reality.
