TORQUE SENSOR
18 September 2012
Ixthus Instrumentation has launched a new non-contacting precision torque sensor with optional measurement of shaft angle and speed from its distribution partner Burster, a leading German sensor manufacturer.
The new 8661 series provides precise and convenient measurement of static and bidirectional rotating torques from 0...0.05 to 0...200Nm with full-scale accuracy to 0.05% for analysing breakaway, holding and tightening torques in mechanical power applications across manufacturing quality control, field service investigation and R & D. An integrally mounted optical encoder option provides additional angular position measurement to 0.09 degrees with rotational speed feedback. The 8661 is also supplied complete with integral shaft drive assemblies.
