These changes are detected by a sensing head typically placed about 1mm from the shaft, and are then converted into an electrical signal by conditioning electronics Sensors Magnetic Sensors Torque Sensors Mon, 11 Jun 2007 19:47:22 +0200 http://www.instrumentationews.com/torque_flange_sensor_is_two_in_one The TMF transducer, developed jointly by Magtrol (formerly Vibro-meter`s instrumentation division) in Switzerland, and GIF in Germany, uses strain-gauge measurement. The sensor is available in rated torques of 450, 1,100 or 2,800Nm, with the optional second measuring range typically being rated at 1/10 of the nominal torque.

By passing an alternating voltage across the terminals of these arrays, surface waves are produced in the substrate. The waves are received by a similar array at the other end which converts them back into an electric signal.

Torsion is sensed by a pair of SAW strain gauges bonded to a shaft at right-angles to each other. One senses compression and the other tension, and this information is transmitted via a radio frequency couple to the decoding electronics which generates outputs for torque, speed, power and angle.
