Insertion force measurement system

A measurement device comprising:

• a pneumatic linear actuator;
• one or more actuator controllers configured to control the pneumatic linear actuator;
• a plurality of displacement rods and a rotating appendage configured to rotate over both an x-axis and a y-axis;
• one or more step motors configured to set orientation of attachments points for the pneumatic linear actuator with respect to a component relative to a location of a user, wherein the load cell module and the rotating appendage are configured to allow the attachment points to be set at different locations from a position of the user in x,y, and z coordinates and at different angles from a hand of the user in x, y, and z coordinates for different movements of an arm of the user;
• a processor configured to receive and analyze information from the one or more step motors as to an insertion force of the component as the component is inserted into a receptacle;
• and
• a lighting device configured to provide lighting with one of a plurality of different light colors based on the analyzing performed by the processor.
