As we mentioned last month, FUTEK holds a firm commitment to not only providing solutions, but to also sharing the knowledge behind those solutions. Over the past few months, we have been compiling a new online section dedicated to sharing our expertise with our customers - we call it FUTEK Solutions. And this month, we are releasing our Rotary Torque Sensor Solution Section.

The Rotary Torque Online Section showcases all the necessary details our customers should be aware of when selecting a rotary torque sensor for their unique applications. From features to models to instruments and accessories, we have outlined all the essentials about rotary torques, making this information accessible at the click of your mouse.

This support document displays the design features of the rotary family – from rotations per minute to material construction to the levels of accuracy, even the option of working with models with built-in encoders. If you view the sensor models, all capacities, RPM maximums and product descriptions are visible. The web section also allows our customers to view what instruments and accessories are compatible with each model. Notably, our USB technology is even available with certain models.

And like our previous web solution sections, FUTEK goes even further with our commitment to share our knowledge and has captured our rotary torque sensors in working applications. Offering our customers example applications and illustrations allows them to see how our products can be uniquely adapted into various environments and fields. Whether you are working in the automotive or automation field, our rotary torque line is known for performing high accuracy rotational measurements no matter the elements.

So stick around for next month’s solution section, and we will be sure to share some new information that you can put to great use!

This summer marks the second annual Sensors + Test Trade Show that FUTEK will participate in Nurnberg, Germany. The three-day international trade show is a convention forum for sensor design and manufacturing companies to rally together and share their product lines. Known as the “most comprehensive and state-of-the-art” tradeshow in the test and measurement industry, participants not only will display their products, but also practice innovative system and solution applications. This makes the Sensors + Test Trade Show a great platform for FUTEK to showcase its advancements over the past year, especially in conjunction with our advanced USB Technology and Miniature Load Cells.

With hundreds of businesses in attendance from dozens of countries, FUTEK hopes to build a stronger relationship with our partners oversea. We look forward to seeing their latest designs and their advancements in the test and measurement industry.

We welcome you to visit our FUTEK booth this upcoming June from the 7th to the 9th. You can receive free access to this event by signing up here: Order Free Tickets

FUTEK understands that your applications have fast approaching deadlines, and we wanted to inform you that all of our rotary torque models are in stock and awaiting your application. So whether your application calls for a Rotary Drive Sensor, Rotary Hex Sensor, or Rotary Shaft Sensor, rest with ease knowing that your project timeline can remain the same.

FUTEK’s TRS705 is a Rotary Shaft-to-Shaft Torque Sensor with built-in Encoders. This example utilizes it in a motor test stand application. The purpose of the TRS705 in this application is to measure the load produced between the brake and the motor. The applied load should result is a smooth braking effect. FUTEK’s TRS705 is constructed with built-in encoders to measure the speed/angle output in this application. So while the torque is displayed on the IPM490, the speed can be read on FUTEK’s IPM480. Therefore, the user can measure both the torque and speed of the motor as the load increases.
