What if you could measure cutting forces directly in your machining process and use that data to make better decisions? Our new 9171B Wireless RCD takes cutting force measurement to the next level. It replaces the 9171A tool holder. The 9171B measures cutting forces in three axes as well as the main torque directly in the process at speeds of up to 12,000 rpm. Thanks to its wireless design and extended measuring ranges, it is especially suited for demanding and heavy-duty machining applications. Combined with the LabAmp WL receiver and the PTS App, it becomes a complete solution for real-time data visualization and detailed analysis. The result is simple: you get a clearer understanding of your materials, tools and processes and can make more informed decisions based on precise measurement data.

Nearly 20 years ago, the Kistler Group awarded its first scholarships to engineering students in China. Some of those students are now shaping the industries we work with every day. This year, Marc Schaad, CEO of the Kistler Group, visited Wuhan University of Technology and Professor Zhang to continue that tradition – presenting the Kistler Scholarship and exploring new opportunities for university-industry collaboration. The visit included an exchange on sensing technologies and closed-loop control strategies for marine engines, the Kistler Scholarship Award Ceremony, and a tour of the university's research laboratories: from methanol dual-fuel engines to spray combustion and catalyst preparation. Originally focused on automotive powertrain research with Beijing Institute of Technology and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the scholarship program expanded into the maritime sector in 2024. Throughout, the focus has remained the same: supporting students in the fields of energy, power and green transformation. As the Kistler Group marks 30 years in the China market, this visit is a reminder that a company's growth is tied to the markets and people it serves. Supporting students today is an investment in the industries of tomorrow. #KistlerGroup #KistlerChina #UniversityIndustryCollaboration #STEMEducation

At Kistler, we’re proud that our sensor technology contributes to making human spaceflight safer; by turning millisecond phenomena into actionable insight.

The best discoveries are the ones you have to search for. At Kistler, that’s what we do every day: we help our customers find what's hidden. The invisible forces, pressures, and signals inside their processes make the difference between good and great. Whether it's detecting micro-defects in medical devices, uncovering pressure patterns in injection molding, or identifying load effects in bridge monitoring - our sensors find what others miss. Happy Easter from all of us at Kistler! We hope your egg hunt is as precise as our measurements. 🐣🌸 #HappyEaster #KistlerGroup #MeasurementTechnology #MakingTheInvisibleVisible

The RV-5 captures true 5-axis wheel movement (X, Y, Z, camber, toe) in real time. Its redesigned core uses magnetic absolute encoders, delivering cleaner signals and improved robustness compared to previous generations. Mounted directly on the wheel carrier, the sensor measures wheel motion exactly where it happens, enabling deeper insights for vehicle dynamics, chassis development, ADAS validation, and motorsport testing. Best of all: the RV-5 is fully compatible with existing RV systems, making upgrades straightforward. It is available now in versions for both passenger cars and trucks. #VehicleDynamics #AutomotiveTesting #SensorTechnology #MeasurementTechnology #Engineering #Automotive #Innovation #Technology

𝗘𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲, 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗯𝗹𝘆 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴: 𝗜𝗝𝗦𝘆𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗞𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗹𝗲𝗿 Joining technology is evolving: less complexity, lower costs, greater efficiency - moving toward compact, simple, reliable, and sustainable solutions. This is exactly where Kistler comes in: with our new Integrated Joining System IJSys, we are introducing a joining module that consistently meets these requirements and takes a clear step forward - developed in close collaboration with Cyltronic AG. Thank you very much for the strong partnership. Our approach - and what exactly does IJSys do for you? 🔹All-in-one: drive technology, sensors, and safety integrated into the housing → reduced investment and design effort. 🔹Plug-and-play (2 cables): no control cabinet components → fast integration and commissioning. 🔹Compact & retrofit-ready: ideal for limited installation space; easiest pneumatic replacement. 🔹Process-reliable & traceable: Quality measurable/documentable; monitoring with maXYmos NC →️ less scrap/downtime. 🔹Electric & flexible: up to 93% less energy than pneumatics; variants to suit your budget & project. In short: less complexity, faster to production, sustainably economical.

Post-process inspections alone cannot guarantee zero-defect production in medical manufacturing. Our CSO David Stucki explains how measuring quality directly inside the mold makes the difference. And what that looks like in practice with our customer EVCO Plastics.
