Product testing and assembly process monitoring are just two of the many industrial activities where Kistler sensors are used Benefits: • Torque measurement is integrated in the production process • Process monitoring ensures zero-defect production • Quality costs are cut because deviations are detected at an early stage • Process efficiency is optimized because the measuring equipment used is extremely flexible Reliability and efficiency in production and development In industrial manufacturing, as well as research and development, standards for precision are becoming ever higher and time...

Product testing and process monitoring Growing numbers of manufacturers rely on Kistler's sensor technology for industrial production so that they can monitor every single assembly step in the manufacture of safety-related components. Safety, reliability and efficiency almost always go hand-in-hand here: for example, suppliers to the automotive industry can only guarantee that their components will function perfectly if they can perform tests during their own production to reliably prevent failures after the components reach the customer. Research and development Development work on new...

Torque sensors Depending on the application, torques are measured in very different force ranges. Kistler offers sensor systems for every application area in production, development and research. We make a distinction between two designs: Torque sensors to measure on rotating shafts Sensors of this type use strain gage technology. They offer maximum accuracy, a very rigid structure and excellent temperature stability. For these torque measuring shafts, transmission of the power supply and the measurement signal is largely contactless. Several features make integration into existing test...

Process monitoring systems for every application The Kistler maXYmos family now provides users with a simple system that can quickly and accurately accomplish a variety of product testing tasks. The maXYmos BL and TL feature XY monitors that can monitor and evaluate the quality of a product or manufacturing step on the basis of a profile. With the help of evaluation objects (EOs), the user adapts the curve evaluation to the specific monitoring task. Based on this specification, the maXYmos then decides whether each individual workpiece is good or bad. Benefits of the maXYmos Family: ••...

Couplings Torque on rotating shafts is measured directly in the machinery train, between a drive and a loading machine. External influences such as shear forces, axial forces or bending moments may affect the measurement signal. Couplings are used to exclude influences of this sort. Couplings for use between the shaft and the sensor differ with regard to their flexibility. Some couplings can only correct a mechanical misalignment in one direction (these are known as singly flexible couplings); others are flexible in two directions (doubly flexible couplings) or in all directions. Choosing...
