Sensor Technology announces the launch of its latest advancement in torque sensing technology – the SGR525/526 Torque Sensors.

RTEC Engineering is on a mission to redefine accuracy standards for dynamometers amid the growing global interest in enhancing engine efficiency and performance. Their technology is grounded in a novel torque measuring technology, also of British origin.

Sensor Technology, an innovator in the field of torque transducers, is excited to announce the launch of its latest product line SGR570 TorqSense range. These advanced sensors are designed to provide precise and reliable torque measurements for Power Take-Off (PTO) systems, catering to a wide range of applications in agriculture, construction, and industrial machinery.

Sensor Technology has announced an update to its TorqSense SGR521 transducer, a significant enhancement in our innovative TorqSense rotary strain gauge series.

Sensor Technology has introduced its digital ORT 230/240 series of optical rotary torque transducers, designed for applications requiring low torque and/or high bandwidth.

Medical experts and sports scientists are becoming increasingly reliant on engineers as their disciplines become more and more technical.

The handling of dry bulk materials used to be a completely manual process, but it is now being increasingly automated in a drive to reduce both the costs and the risks of injury, while also increasing throughput and accuracy.

Sensor Technology has extended its new range of torque sensors with a model that has the sensing head and electronics in separate housings.

TorqSense transducers are playing a vital role in packing medical test kits at Axis-Shield in Dundee, which develops new diagnostic compounds that help with the early identification and management of critical illnesses.

Driveshafts deliver power as a rotary force, and in most applications there is a need to know the amount of power in the system. But getting measurements from a turning shaft requires some engineering ingenuity.

The aerospace sector is renowned for its safety standards and a whole industry has grown up to provide equipment and services for testing aircraft and their subsystems.

New low-capacity models of Sensor Technology’s non-contact torque sensors offer accurate measurement down to 200mNm (0.2Nm), for applications such as precision and high-speed robots, medical devices, protheses and implants, small drives and micro motors.

To analyse the long-term performance and reliability of hard-working valves and pumps, Bifold Group has adopted digital torque transducers from Sensor Technology for two of its test rigs.

A small proportion of the Thames is to be illuminated using power generated by the flow of the river itself, as Kingston University tests prototypes of a new hydroelectric turbine design.

With theatres striving to create breath-taking spectacles and leave the audience gasping for more, there is often world-class engineering behind the scenes. A British company is developing technology to ensure safety when excited performers and heavy machinery share the same space.

The TorqSense SGR530/540, being introduced throughout 2020 and 2021, measures torque using a full four element strain gauge bridge.

Sensor Technology has extended its new range of torque sensors with a model that has the sensing head and electronics in separate housings.

Sensor Technology has launched a new range of non-contact torque sensors based on a full four element strain gauge bridge design, complementing its existing non-contact sensors that use surface acoustic wave (SAW) detection.

Equipment rentals are increasingly helping companies overcome the hurdle of finding investment capital to fund development and verification projects. The current phase of the economic cycle, recovery from a slowdown, is always difficult and frustrating, as Mark Ingham of Sensor Technology identified. Sensor Technology has introduced rental options for it’s TorqSense range in response to this.

A pre-pilot precision mixing plant is using wireless TorqSense transducers for ultra-accurate viscosity measurement of high-value compounds. The plant is used to prepare small batches of compounds from shampoo and detergent to cosmetics, therapeutic and medical preparations. Some of the ingredients in the compounds are very expensive, so product developers are loath to make large batches early in the formulation process.
