Motor Test Stand

How it Works

Reaction Torque Sensors can be used to audit rotary torque measurements.
In this application, a Reaction Torque Sensor is installed between a motor and a fixed plate.
The TFF Series Reaction Torque Sensor is intended to measure any torsion produced by the motor itself while in operation. This test is also known as measuring torque moments.
The data produced by this test stand can be viewed on a digital display, such as FUTEK's IHH500 Hand Held Display or IPM650 Panel Mount Display, or streamed directly to a PC using FUTEK's USB Solutions.
If more detailed data is required, utilizing FUTEK's SENSIT™ Test and Measurement Software allows operators the ability to live graph and log all data collected.
