Novel torque transducer technology can be integrated in critical power transmission components
05 July 2011
A patented torque and force transducer technology called Pulsed Current Modulated Encoding (PCME) that offers exceptional performance even in extreme temperatures and harsh environmental conditions has been developed by NTC Engineering.
The technology is available in a range of standard products or can be integrated directly into one off custom designs and OEM applications. With measurement ranges up to 3000 Nm, shaft speeds to 20,000 rpm and bandwidth to 30 kHz. Environmental conditions can include submerged in oil and high temperatures.
The technology has been successfully applied across a wide range of application areas including motorsports, automotive, aircraft & railways, engine & plant construction, and industrial test & measurement.
Specific applications include load pins for shear force measurement on cranes, regulation and speed sensing for electric cycles, torque measurement on high speed wind turbine couplings, torque regulation on heavy duty materials processing, and KERS torque measurement for F1.
