Pressure plate
Request quoteLP1600 Pressure Plate
The LP1600 connects to LutraCAD over USB, so the pressure data goes straight into your design workflow without exporting files or retyping anything in a second program. You measure, analyse and design in one tool.
Directly from LutraCAD
Static analysis
The patient stands still on the plate while you watch a live preview. You get the left/right and forefoot/heel distribution, the load per quadrant and the maximum pressure.
Dynamic gait analysis
Record a guided walk in both directions, or let the patient walk back and forth while steps are detected automatically. Per foot you see contact time, maximum pressure, impulse, heel strike, toe off, foot progression angle, cadence and the centre of pressure trajectory.
Balance
The patient stands as still as possible while the plate tracks the centre of pressure. The software reports the path length, mean velocity, AP and ML excursion and the 95% ellipse area.

Where it fits in your practice
All six use cases run on the same three measurement modes.
-
Diabetic foot
Find the high-pressure areas with the peak and average pressure per zone, and use them as the starting point for offloading in your insole design.
-
Gait & biomechanics
See how the foot rolls off with the centre of pressure trajectory, foot progression angle, contact times and the left/right comparison.
-
Posture & balance
Assess the left/right and forefoot/heel distribution live, and measure postural sway with the balance test.
-
Athlete assessment
Spot pressure peaks and overload with peak pressure, impulse and force per zone, and check stability with the balance test.
-
Children
Measurements stay with the patient, so you can measure again at the next visit and compare the reports to follow how the feet develop.
-
Pre / post surgery
Compare plantar pressure and gait patterns before and after foot or ankle treatment.
