What Evolution Measurement does

Evolution Measurement Ltd is a UK-headquartered (Andover, Hampshire) provider of physical measurement instruments and consultative measurement solutions, operating across pressure, temperature, electrical, and environmental measurement. The company was founded in 2016 by Paul Crowhurst, who serves as CEO and Founder, and runs a US office in Charlotte, NC serving North American customers. Its core proprietary product line is the EvoScann family of miniature digital pressure scanners (P4-A, P16-A, P16X-A, P64-D), which use MEMS pressure sensors, native differential measurement, patented Dynamic Zero Correction and Double Isolation bonding, and synchronous multi-channel scanning (one ADC per sensor) to deliver measurement accuracy up to ~0.06% FS and form factors as small as 20mm x 20mm. Outputs are engineered engineering units delivered directly via CANbus, EtherCAT, or Ethernet without external signal conditioning.

The business combines three revenue streams: (1) hardware sales of EvoScann scanners, Scanivalve MPS series pressure scanners (distributed under a UK/Northern Europe channel partnership), DTS4050 digital temperature scanners, and accessories such as the ES4000 miniature Ethernet switch and MPSTCU thermal control unit; (2) authorized service and calibration for Scanivalve and D. Marchiori (DMA) Air Data Test Sets across UK and Europe; and (3) bespoke end-to-end measurement systems covering specification, software development, build, installation, CE/UKCA approvals, and commissioning. Go-to-market is consultative direct sales led by experienced measurement engineers, supported by partnerships with Scanivalve, DMA, Guildline Instruments, and Aero Sensor, plus motorsport engagements such as the Horizon Motorsports Hammerhead time attack program and Formula Student sponsorships. Customers span automotive/motorsport aerodynamic testing, aerospace flight test and avionics, turbomachinery, academic research, and industrial R&D. The company holds a Cyber Essentials certification and has two patent-pending inventions underpinning its EvoScann range, alongside the registered EvoScann trademark.

Core offering

Evolution Measurement manufactures and distributes precision physical measurement instruments, principally miniature digital pressure scanners under the EvoScann brand (P4-A, P16-A, P16X-A, P64-D) and distributes the Scanivalve MPS series pressure scanners and DTS4050 temperature scanners. The company also sells supporting accessories (Ethernet switches, thermal control units, input header kits) and ProCap 3.2 3D flow visualization software, while providing authorized service, calibration, and bespoke end-to-end measurement system design and commissioning for clients in aerospace, automotive/motorsport, turbomachinery, academic, and industrial R&D applications.

Product overview

Evolution Measurement is a manufacturer and distributor of precision physical measurement instruments for pressure, temperature, and flow measurement applications. The product portfolio centers on the EvoScann branded miniature pressure scanner family (P4-A, P16-A, P16X-A, P64-D) which are compact, rugged digital pressure scanners designed for on-vehicle aerodynamic testing, wind tunnel applications, and aerospace research. These scanners integrate directly with vehicle systems via CANbus or Ethernet and output calibrated engineering data without requiring external signal conditioning. The company also distributes Scanivalve MPS series intelligent pressure scanners (MPS4264 Gen2, MPS4216, MPS4232) featuring fully synchronous multi-channel scanning with one ADC per sensor, and the DTS4050 digital temperature scanner series for thermocouple measurements. Supporting accessories include the ES4000 miniature Ethernet switches, MPSTCU thermal control units for extended temperature operation, and MPS Px input header kits for rapid tubing changes. The product lineup is complemented by ProCap 3.2, a 3D flow visualization platform from streamwise, and DMA air data test set calibration services for the aviation industry.
