What Is a Torque Sensor? and Types

What is a torque sensor? A torque sensor is a device that measures the torque (torsion or rotational force) applied to a rotating shaft of a component or machine. Torque sensors monitor and control the performance and condition of rotating components such as engines, motors, shafts, gears, pulleys, rollers, gears, and generators. They are widely used in the mechanical and industrial sectors, including manufacturing and R&D, particularly in the automotive and electric motor industries.

Pipe Flow vs Pressure – Relationship & Calculate Tools

Pressure and flow in pipelines are two important parameters for industrial processes. Pressure or differential pressure, flow rate, and pipe diameter are all related. For example, the Bernoulli equation, the Poiseuille equation, etc., all try to sort out the relationship between pipeline flow, pressure, and pipe diameter. It is important to monitor pressure and flow in pipelines, they directly affect the performance and safety of your fluid system! So, let’s take a look at their relationship.

Case – Fluid Heat Measurement

Electromagnetic heat meter is an inductive instrument for measuring conductive media, suitable for measuring the volume flow of conductive liquids with a conductivity greater than 5μs/cm. The electromagnetic heat meter consists of a flow measurement unit, a heat calculation unit and a paired temperature sensor (PT1000), which can calculate, accumulate, store and display the amount of heat absorbed or released in the heat exchange circuit. The same electromagnetic heat meter can measure heat loss and cold loss respectively. Table of ContentsWhat is torque?Function of the torque sensorTypes of T......

Shaft Torque Sensors – Product List and Work Guide

Shaft Torque Sensors are devices that can directly measure the torque of a rotating shaft. This refers to the mounting structure of the torque sensor, such as a flange torque sensor. Compared with flange-mounted torque sensors, shaft-mounted torque sensors take up less space and are relatively inexpensive. Shaft Torque Sensors can be dynamic torque sensors or static torque sensors. By detecting the tiny deformation, stress or phase difference caused by the torque when the shaft transmits power, the mechanical torque signal is converted into an electrical signal output. This enables the monitor......

What is Contactless Torque Sensor and Technology?

Compared with traditional contact torque sensors, Contactless Torque Sensor avoids physical contact. This feature significantly reduces wear and energy loss. Improves the reliability of the measurement system. Contactless Torque Sensor does not mean that the sensor can obtain measurement results without contacting the measured object. Instead, it means that the power supply and signal inside the sensor are transmitted through two sets of coils, and there will be no friction loss when the sensor rotates. The advantage of this sensor is that it can rotate at high speed and has a long service lif......
