Pressure measurement film -Prescale-
This is the film that can measure pressure.
Pressure and pressure distribution, which could not be visually observed in the past, can now be easily confirmed.
Prescale allows you to easily measure pressure distribution and range. Created using Fujifilm's advanced thin film coating technologies, the pressure inspection sensor on the entirety of the film allows you to confirm pressure distribution of the entire surface at a glance. The color appears red where pressure is applied, and the color density varies according to the amount of pressure. To cover a wide pressure range (0.006 to 300 MPa), we supply nine types of Prescale.
Pressure measurement film -Prescale Sheet type-
Prescale Sheets make pressure measurement more readily accessible.
Prescale Sheets are a version of Prescale that are pre-cut into easy-to-use sizes. It is recommended for first-time users and for small-scale applications. To cover a wide pressure range (0.2 to 300 MPa), we supply six types of Prescale Sheets.
Measure tire pressure
Measure the pressure distribution of cleaning polish against liquid crystal panels
Measure the pressure between cylinder heads and cylinder blocks

<How to calculate pressure value (MPa)>
We supply nine types of Prescale and six types of Prescale Sheets for use depending on the pressure range.
Each product is made for a certain pressure range (MPa). Customers must confirm the pressure value of their application environment.

Judges Evaluation : As the aging of skilled workers and the shortage of skilled workers will become increasingly important issues in the future, this service utilizes a pressure measurement film that applies the film technology that the company has cultivated over many years, and allows for comparison and automatic measurement on a smartphone app. It provides support functions such as judgment and allows anyone to perform specialized inspections using a simple user interface, and can be said to be a good example of using DX to inherit and systemize the skills of individual craftsmen.
FUJIFILM Prescale Mobile
The app that enables any user to quantify pressure and other analysis results with ease.
Prescale Mobile is a dedicated app that enables easy quantification of pressure by capturing the colored Prescale with mobile device. You can also register and inspection images against your own boundary sample.
- Easily quantitative inspection
- Improve inspection quality
- Improve traceability
