Learn How to Select the Proper Torque Sensor For Your Application

Measuring torque is essential for manufacturers to ensure their product's quality, safety and reliability isn't compromised. The failure of a three-cent fastener that isn't properly tightened can lead to catastrophic
or latent torque failures. Fasteners that are insufficiently torqued can vibrate loose and excessive torque can strip threaded fasteners.

A torque sensor is a finely tuned instrument designed for measuring and verifying torque. Torque sensors measure the torque output of hand and power tools, as well as calibrating torque tools. Companies that rely on torque tools can reduce lost product and product liability by regularly testing tools with torque sensors. By keeping torque tools in calibration, companies reduce the risk of product failure before or after a product leaves the factory by preventing over- or under-tightened fasteners. Testing torque is a science and not something that can be left to chance. 

Different types of torque sensors are best suited for different torque testing applications. Quality torque sensors save companies money by reducing lost product rates and preventing costly lawsuits or recalls related to improperly tightened fasteners. Torque sensors play an important role in maintaining product quality in modern manufacturing.

Torque sensors are a vital instrument of any quality control process. Learn the key benefits of the different torque sensor options.
