Bauer Gear Motor I Integrated electronic torque monitoring As digitisation advances and with Industry 4.0 on the rise, passive actuators are becoming active components by relaying data that can be used in the machine or system for diagnostics or further processing. This constituted an opportunity for Bauer Gear Motor to expand its geared motor portfolio and respond to new requirements accordingly. Developed under the slogan "Geared Motor Goes Online", TorqueControl4.0 has been combined with a mains-powered geared motor to create an Industry 4.0 component with a range of useful additional functions....

Rapid, accurate torque measurement Rapid, accurate current and voltage measurements enable TorqueControl4.0 to display, report and assess torque progression cyclically. As an example, this can be used with the integrated power semiconductors to quickly shut down the system in the event of overload, or to set axes based on the torque. This makes TorqueControl4.0 the equivalent of an overload clutch where the parameters can be set electronically. This also makes it possible to make a precise assessment of the motor in the load spectrum. Areas of application • Replaces mechanical overload clutches,...
