The instrument is designed to evaluate the shock attenuation and force-displacement characteristics of athletic footwear midsole materials. It uses a free-fall hammer to simulate impact forces generated during running, enabling the assessment of cushioning performance and energy absorption of midsole material systems.

Suitable for footwear manufacturers, testing laboratories, and quality control (QC) departments for the research, development, and evaluation of the cushioning performance of athletic footwear midsole materials in accordance with SATRA TM142.
