Fluid Percussion Injury
« Back to Custom Design and Fabrication page
The Fluid Percussion Injury device was developed by Custom Design and Fabrication several decades ago and has become an icon in the neurotrauma research community.
The FPI is constructed with a sturdy aluminum frame and the basic structure is finished with a state-of-the-art powder coating process. The balance of the aluminum components are anodized to prevent oxidation and guarantee longevity.
FPI assembly includes the base pendulum mast, graduated protractor, ball bearing-enhanced impact hammer assembly, acrylic fluid cylinder and bracketry, transducer housing, transfer tube and a digital transducer. The device is completed with a self-calibrating Trauma Inducer Pressure Inducer Amplifier.
