VectoPatch
Non-invasive static pressure measurement
VectoPatch is a low-profile, surface-mounted solution for static pressure measurement when conventional pressure taps or drilling into the test object is impractical or infeasible. Designed for minimal aerodynamic interference, it enables reliable pressure acquisition while preserving the integrity of sensitive or finished surfaces.
Features
Highlights
- Surface-mounted alternative to conventional pressure taps
- No drilling or permanent modification of the test object required
- Thin, low-profile body
- Minimal aerodynamic influence on flat surfaces
- Simple installation using application-specific adhesive
Measured Parameters
- Static pressure
Specifications
- Length: custom lengths available
- Material: Stainless steel 1.4404
Other materials on request (In718, Plastic)

DESIGN & PRODUCTION
Additive Manufacturing at Vectoflow
Additive manufacturing is at the heart of Vectoflow’s probe technology. Using advanced 3D-printing processes, we create lightweight yet extremely robust probes with geometries that conventional manufacturing cannot achieve. Complex internal channels, compact multi-sensor designs, and fully integrated features enable reliable flow measurement even under the most demanding aerodynamic and thermal conditions.
All Under One Roof
Our in-house facilities in Gilching (Germany) allow us to move seamlessly from concept to finished probe – combining design, production, and calibration under one roof. The result: tailor-made flow measurement solutions that deliver accuracy, durability, and unmatched flexibility for every application.
