Overview

What Is the WST1001 Torque sensor?

The WST1001 is a torque sensor. All figures on this page come from the factory parameter sheet — what you read here is what ships.

Contact our engineers for the complete datasheet and design-in support.

WST1001 Dynamic Force Sensor Rotary Torque sensor Transducer, Shaft to Shaft Rotary Torque Sensor offers a unique solution for torque auditing applications. The shaft torque sensor (aka shaft torsion sensor) is available in a wide capacity range and utilizes strain gauge technology.

Rotational sensors (or dynamic torque sensor) are utilized in applications where the torque measurement must be taken at a spinning shaft, engine or a stationary motor. In this case, the transducer must rotate in-line attached to the shaft. A rotary torque transducer is fitted with a slip ring or wireless electronics to transmit the torque signal while rotating.

Rotary Torque Transducers are frequently used as testing/auditing tools for motors, torque measuring tool, turbines, and generators to measure rotational torque. A shaft-to-shaft Rotating Torque Sensor can be also utilized for feedback control, monitoring torque, and analyzing the efficiency of test stands and for torque measurement of rotating shaft using strain gauge.

Applications

Where the WST1001 Works Best

Rotary Torque Measurement

In-line between motor and load, the WST1001 measures static and dynamic torque in real time — for engine test stands, pump characterisation and gearbox QC.

Shaft-rotating

Drive-train Test Rigs

Driveshaft, halfshaft and rear-axle test rigs fit the WST1001 between the driven and driving halves to capture transient torque during shift events.

High RPM ready

Robot Joint Torque Feedback

Integrated into robot joint modules and collaborative robot wrists, the WST1001 closes the force-control loop for assembly, polishing and human-safe co-operation.

Electrical Notes

  • Shielded cable; keep away from motor/power runs, ground the shield at the indicator side

Mounting Checklist

  1. Mount on a rigid, flat base
  2. Torque mounting screws evenly; avoid over-torque that preloads the measuring element
  3. Keep the load applied through the intended loading axis; verify alignment before calibration
  4. Verify zero balance before calibration, then calibrate with certified test weights
