Development of methods for registration of the force exerted by hand-fingers in industrial work.
In a manufacturing industry producing ground hard metal inserts, a small strain-gauge pressure transducer was built into the work prefix to measure the force exerted by the fingers. The procedure did not interfere with the work. The variation of force and of the time sequences between each force measurement were measured. The coefficient of variation (CV) was used as a measure of precision of the work.
