‘Torque Wrench’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
SDI torque pickup has internal digital data link from
Sensor Developments, which we summarised at the time by saying "SDI's model 01424 can be utilised with a variety of instrumentation systems to measure rotating torque, including the 90386 USB Sensor Link. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Abssac torsion springs have linear spring rates from
Abssac: "Abssac supplies unwind and wind-up torsion springs with linear spring rates. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from HT Servo
- take a look at HT Servo motor has integrated microstepping driver
which says: "HT Servo has released its improved Silverpak 23D Plus, a high-torque NEMA 23-step motor with an integrated microstepping driver. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Anca Industrial Supplies, MX7 grinder makes tools with up to 16mm diameters,
as well as Kistler offers sensitive and robust torque sensors from Kistler Instruments,
and Pitch gears with intelligent shaft sealing from Freudenberg Simrit LP.
