NEWTON - Sweating Thermal Manikin
"Newton" is a complete turn-key thermal manikin system perfect for a broad range of clothing/environmental testing. Constructed of a thermally conductive copper filled carbon-epoxy shell with embedded resistance wire heating and sensor wire elements, Newton was developed using advanced CAD digital modeling to ensure accuracy and repeatability in both manufacturing and in testing. The Newton system is available in 20, 26, or 34-zone configurations, but the number of zones and other thermal properties can be customized for faster transient response, greater sensitivity, or easier handling. Two 50th percentile body forms are available (Western or Asian Male), in either dry or sweating formats. All packages include PC computer with MTNW's exclusive ThermDAC control software.

SIMON - Sleeping Bag Thermal Manikin
"SIMON" is constructed of a thermally conductive aluminum filled carbon-epoxy shell with embedded heating and sensor wire elements. Developed using advanced CAD digital modeling to ensure repeatability in manufacturing, the Simon system is built in accordance with ASTM and ISO standards to meet the garment evaluation needs of sleeping bag manufacturers and research/testing institutes. Simplified construction and modular control electronics help lower system cost while retaining the advanced features that have made MTNW thermal manikins the industry standard.

NEMO - Submersible Thermal Manikin
"NEMO" is an advanced, fully immersible aluminum manikin with embedded heating and thermistor sensor elements. All heating and control electronics are located inside the manikin for maximum accuracy and easy maintenance. This completely waterproof, true-weight manikin is rated for immersion testing to depths of 10 feet (3 meters), allowing realistic testing of diving gear, marine survival suits, and other protective garments. NEMO features sealed joints with adjustable friction settings at the ankles, elbows, knees, and hips. These joints will maintain their watertight integrity in any pose. NEMO's 50th percentile body form (Western or Asian Male) is available in either dry or sweating formats. All packages include PC computer with MTNW's exclusive ThermDAC control software.

ADAM - Advanced Thermal Manikin
Originally developed for the US Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory, MTNW's Advanced Automotive Manikin (ADAM) is the world's most advanced thermal comfort manikin and represents a true leap in technology for thermal manikin research. Subdivided into 120 individual porous metal sweating zones, ADAM was designed to evaluate the highly non-uniform and transient environments in vehicles and aircraft. The manikin mimics human responses such as sweating and breathing with incredible accuracy and responds rapidly to environmental changes. ADAM is available as a 50th percentile Western Male, with integrated heating and sweating capabilities as well as optional internal breathing system, battery powered operation, and RF communication features.
