As a hearing aid acoustician, I was frustrated with the high price of REM measurement probe tubes. It took us a year of design and development to implement a manufacturing process for probe tubes that allows them to be sold at a reduced cost to hearing aid professionals. The more you buy, the better your […]
Since 1982, in-vivo measurement probes have been manufactured in the same way: that is by using a medical grade silicone tube with an internal diameter of 0.5mm and an external diameter of 1mm. To this tube, we merge a handle of the appropriate size to connect with the measurement microphones according to the manufacturer of […]
The first device to perform real ear measurements was the Rastronics CCI-10, developed in Denmark by Steen Rasmussen in 1982. The silicone probe tube system was developed at that time and has remained essentially the same ever since. That is to say a silicone tube with an inner diameter of 0.5mm and an outer diameter […]
Why do some probe packages contain a probe holder and are not “whole”? During the manufacture of probes, sometimes probes are accidentally separated at the point of tearing. To preserve the “new product” appearance, the entire section of 20 probes would then have to be thrown into the trash. It also sometimes happens that a […]
