Torque Applications
Torque Applications
Promess TorquePRO is a motorized torque control designed to control designed to control and measure rotation and torque.
The Promess TorquePRO offers leading industry technologies to tackle whatever application you can throw at it.
Wide Range of Applications
- Measuring precision bearing
- Cold engine testing
- Gear backlash
- Efficiency testing
- Torque to turn measuring on just about anything that turns or needs adjustment
Torque Application Examples
Application: Running Torque
The first test is to measure the breakaway torque as the outer race is held and the inner race is turned. When the bearing is rotating, the average torque is measured over several rotations.
Application: Backlash Testing
The resistance torque of the gear is measured by driving and measuring the torque on the input shaft. Then the backlash throughout the gear travel is measured on the fly.
Application: Breakaway Torque
Application: Efficiency
Case Studies
Automotive Seat Recliner
Testing seat recliner mechanisms to verify they meet all customer functionality and government safety critical requirements.
What It Did For Our Customer
- Verify the presence of seatback return spring and latch spring
- Detect any abnormal force at any point along the range of travel
Industrial Insertion
Brass fitting insertion into a plastic housing.
Torque testing brass connector within plastic housing to detect cracks.
What It Did For Our Customer
- 100% inspection of all parts by doing a revolution versus torque test
- Upper and lower limit of the good part taught
Backlash Testing
Measuring backlash is a critical test in manufacturing, backlash specification is the criteria for how “loose” or “tight” a gear set is.
What It Did For Our Customer
- Remove the human error from the manual backlash testing process
- Enhance manufacturing and machining practices internal to the plant
