Optimization of vehicle drivetrain performance has been an important endeavor for decades. So too has the quest for increased automotive engine fuel efficiency. Engine torque monitoring aids in both ...

Fun fact: Dynometers do not measure horsepower, they measure torque. That torque figure, when multiplied by the rpm it is measured at, and then divided by 5,252, is essentially how a dyno derives a ...

Devon-based Ashwoods Electric Motors has chosen torque sensors from Isle-of-Wight-based Datum for its suite of automated dynamometers, which Ashwoods designed in-house. “The team wanted a relatively ...

I recently ran into an interesting dilemma while running tests on TI’s new InstaSPIN™-FOC sensorless motor control software. “How do you define motor torque?” On the surface, this sounds like an easy ...

Torque is an important factor in much of the equipment on a factory floor. Measuring torque is often something that's misunderstood, which can lead to over- under-designing of measurement systems.
