Why do I need to measure torque and power? Why is it so important? The simple answer is, “Because it saves time and money.” Knowing the true mechanical torque and power on a rotating shaft is especially valuable when it comes to commissioning new...
One of the most common questions we get when it comes to our torque telemetry is: Why do I need mechanical torque measurements when my drive (such as an engine or an AC motor) already provides a torque (or power) measurement? The short answer is that mechanical torque...
What is torque telemetry? Torque telemetry is a wireless method of measuring torque on a rotating shaft. At its most fundamental level, a torque telemetry system’s “job” is to energize, transmit, and process the data received from a sensor (such as a...
When it comes to measuring torque on a rotating shaft, there are several options available depending on the application. The most common and well-known rotary torque measurement systems are in-line torque transducers. As the name suggests, these transducers are...
