Performance analysis ratchets up a gear with dual parameter cross-referencing
Simultaneous measurement of a shaft’s torque and angular position or rotational distance is now possible thanks to a new development by Sensor Technology Ltd, a combined torque sensor and angular position encoder. The company’s R&D Manager James Gilkes explains how...
Speeding emerging green technologies to maturity
Many small steps are helping reduce carbon emissions, but if we are to avoid catastrophic global warming giant leaps are urgently required. Torque measuring specialist Sensor Technology is helping one of the key green tech players develop and test technologies...
Torquing through Covid lockdown
The national lockdowns of 2020 may have helped advance the design and development of the next generation of hyper-efficient city cars, as reorganisation of an annual endurance competition lead one of the teams to re-focus its efforts. Every year since...
Hydrogen car drives for efficiency world record
A team of Dutch engineers competing to develop the world’s most efficient hydrogen fuelled car has used a British torque sensor to determine that their next generation vehicle needs a custom designed and built hub motor. To measure the efficiency...
Mass market electric vehicles getting revved up for launch
Saietta Group Ltd is a UK based research and development company which designs motors for light-weight electric vehicle (EV) propulsion. The company’s latest innovation is the ‘S-AC’ which is an ultra-efficient brushless axial-flux AC motor. It boasts extreme efficiency levels...
Non-contact technology simplifies torque monitoring and aids efficiency
Monitoring torque in a drive shaft is one of the best ways of assessing the performance of plant and machinery. However because drive shafts rotate, hard wiring a sensor into place usually requires the use of a delicate slip ring...
Reliable torque sensing at low speed or low capacity
In the selection of a rotary torque sensor for a given application, the datasheets for particular products are often a good place to start, detailing the maximum torque capacity and maximum speed for the technologies under consideration. Those figures on...
