Contactless torque measurement

Patented sensor system - contactless and retrofittable

The contactless and multifunctional sensor system is suitable for dynamic and static measurement tasks. Alongside measuring transmitted power, it captures typical peak loads and overloads of shafts, as those might cause downtime and are relevant for scheduling predictive maintenance.

With regard to the measurable variables, like speed and torque, T-Sensor is suitable for optimizing plant processes as well as for avoiding non-compliant operating conditions.

The sensor system from the T-Sensor series focusses on retrofit applications. It is available for both stationary application and mobile setups, that are easily to be mounted. This leads to a reduction in costs by avoiding:

• business interruptions
• unforeseen maintenance work
• additional administrative costs
• rental or replacement of (spare) machines
• additional equipment costs for backups
• unnecessary risk premiums (instead ensuring insurability of operations)
• contractual liquidated damages as a result of failure to deliver

Comparing to alternative sensor technology the T-Sensor excels by the following advantages listed on the technology comparison slide underneath.

Retrofit solution for existing setups

The presented sensor does not require any modification nor does the monitoring sensor technology, which monitors torque, and speed require any treatment or modification of the surface of the shaft.

The sensor– without causing any potentially irreversible changes to an existing facility – is designed for retrofit, e.g. in cases where historically torque measurement had not been necessary or other solutions had been too expensive. The new technology allows operating condition measurement and monitoring of complex drive systems for peak and overload, and enables alarming and emergency shutdown.

Customizable solution - share your requirements with us.

The sensor devices are available as permanently installable units for stationary and mobile setups – for purchase or as rental equipment – and can be retrofitted without irreversible changes to an existing system. They can be used wherever torque measurements had been previously impossible or simply too expensive, for example in heavy turbomachinery and in construction.

The sensor can be adapted to your plant in various sizes and shapes. For example, miniaturization of the sensor head as well as the electronics and corresponding adaptations for smaller shaft diameters and with limited installation space are possible.

The system would be calibrated on a concrete and present measuring object to achieve best results. A customized approach to reach the required accuracy and specific customer’s requirements will be presented, adopted, and agreed with the customer. As a result, modifications and adjustments of our software are possible and rather probable.

We are a young endeavor. Let’s cooperate.

Profit from our cooperation with other enterprises. We can help you enhance operational effectiveness and secure operations by an innovative technology in the field of torque measurement and control.
