Trade in your old force plates for 10x better accuracy with Optima™

Did you know that you can trade in your old AMTI or other brand force plates to upgrade to the Optima High Performance System, giving you ten times more accuracy?

The Optima High Performance System is a revolutionary development in force measurement technology, offering a 10-fold improvement over any other force platform system on the market. These force plates are ideal for studying biomechanical gait, sports performance enhancement, and occupational therapy.

Optima is also the first force plate to adhere to the ASTM F3019-16 international “Standard Test Method For Verification Of Multi-Axis Force Measuring Platforms”. This means that, using AMTI’s newly optimised strain gauge technology, the Optima is the only system to provide levels of accuracy never before seen in force platform technology. Read more.

The Optima level of accuracy includes:

• An average centre of pressure (COP) accuracy of just a fraction of a millimetre, which is typically less than 0.5mm.
• Crosstalk values typically ± 0.02% of applied load.
• Measurement accuracy typically ± 0.5% of applied load (with a minimum applied load of 50lb).

AMTI verifies the accuracy of every Optima system through a proprietary Precision Calibration, which takes up to 4000 measurements throughout the plate’s entire rated capacity. No other force platform in the market undergoes such a rigorous accuracy testing process, which uses a high-density calibration grid that covers the entire platform surface. It then uses fully documented NIST-traceable standards to confirm its accuracy.

AMTI recently updated their large surface area platforms to the Optima Biomechanics Measurement System range, which is a close second in accuracy to Optima and at a more affordable price. This means that all of AMTI’s standard force platforms are now part of the Optima family and undergo AMTI’s patented Optima calibration process. This process produces force plates that are more accurate and more repeatable from edge to edge than ever before. Read more.
