LPX Low Torque Reaction Sensor


+ Enlarge Picture

 

The LPX is a low torque sensor designed for calibrating and testing small hand screwdrivers, torque wrenches and power tools. With its low profile design, the calibration instrument can be used for automated applications, by mounting it to a palletized system. This saves time as there is need to remove the driver from the robot or off the automated system for calibration. These versatile torque sensors are used in conjunction with a torque tester.

  • For calibrating low torque hand screwdrivers, wrenches and power tools.
  • The low profile design makes it ideal for calibrating robotic drivers on the assembly line.
  • Various models that range from 1 ozf.in to 20 lbf.in
  • Features “ARCII” technology, an instant auto-recognition system of the LPX connected to the PTT or LTT.
  • Mountable.
  • 1/4” female square drive.
  • Bi-directional
  • Accuracy ± .25% of full scale*.

Note: * This is the “stand alone” accuracy for the torque sensor.
When the torque sensor is coupled with a Mountz torque tester, the system accuracy is:
Accuracy ± 0.5% of reading from 20% to 100%
Accuracy ± 1% of reading from 10% to 20%.
