The input stress can be easily measured via strain gauge measurement of the input pinion bearing housing. The output torque is easily measured using a static torque meter. Torque sensor A torque sensor , torque transducer or torque meter is a device for measuring and recording the torque on a rotating system, such as an engine , crankshaft , gearbox , transmission , rotor , a bicycle crank or cap torque tester.

Torque transducers have come a long way over the years. Previously, you had to choose between accuracy and cost effectiveness. That made them prohibitively expensive for most manufacturing settings, and their size made them difficult if not outright impossible to implement effectively in a factory setting.
Non-direct methods of measurement can detect something such as a change in electrical power consumption, but this is typically too inaccurate to be reliable. Worn or blunt tools increase machining times and require more power.
This can lead to broken tools, increase in machine wear and poor quality parts. Torqstar sensors can be integrated into machines to monitor efficiency and prompt timely tool replacement or sharpening.
Further potential applications for these sensors are enhanced when they are coupled with position or speed encoders, or rotation counters.
The sensor is made up of two main components: A stainless steel shaft, dimensioned for the appropriate torque, and a second metal ring, which fits tightly on the shaft. Although the ring appears to be normal steel, it is actually a special titanium-nickel material which has the property of being magneto-elastic. Magneto-elastic materials are commonly known as pseudo magnets.
