We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Torque Transducer",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Transducers promise reliable torque testing from
Datum Electronics, which we summarised at the time by saying "Torque measuring systems are available either as a complete torque transducer or as a separate rotor and stator assembly, ideal for high speed test rig and OEM applications".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Torque transducer meets test bench standards from
HBM UK: "HBM has designed the TB2 for nonrotating use with continuous calibration and for static and dynamic measurement".
In October 2007, we covered the news from Datum Electronics
concerning its Datum Electronics torque calibrator
- take a look at Company orders huge torque calibrator
which says: "Datum Electronics' new system can apply torque of up to 200,000Nm to torque sensors and transducers up to 1m in diameter".
Take a look also at the news release from Datum Electronics, Torque transducer upgrade scheme launched,
as well as Torque wrench aids African pipeline from Norbar Torque Tools,
and Torque transducer produces immediate results from HBM UK.
