Contactless measurement fast and precise

Magnetic-inductive torque sensor

Simple OEM sensor application through modular concept.

Direct Torque Measurement: Unique technology for detecting mechanical forces in waves. The torque sensor forms with the shaft a tuned measuring system which can be economically produced in large quantities.

The Magnetic Sense technology creates a unique force and torque sensor for series applications. Sensors with this technology can measure torques, bending forces and axial loads (tensile and compressive forces).

The contactless and active sensor solution based on the magnetostrictive principle consists of the following individual components:

Mechanical sensor module (must be mounted on the measuring shaft)

Sensor electronics (integrated in the sensor)

Connection cable (connects the electronics to the user system)

The technology of our sensors

Our multi-force sensor works with any ferromagnetic test object (for example: solid shaft, hollow tube) and can be used to measure torques, bending forces and axial forces.

The sensor module of an Active Torque Sensor is placed on the ferromagnetic test object where the measurements (for example, torque) are to be taken. The sensor element inside the module emits an alternating magnetic field, which penetrates the surface of the test object. The mechanical forces acting on the test object influence the alternating magnetic field and its properties. These changes are detected by the sensor element and passed on for processing in the sensor electronics.

Features of our products


The Active Torque sensor can be used at any measuring point made of ferromagnetic material. The measuring shaft should additionally be hardened and demagnetized.

By initializing the sensor, material parameters can be entered. In order to achieve high accuracy, it is necessary to perform a two-point calibration.

The two-point calibration involves applying a load to which the sensor reading is normalized.
