Custom Torque Sensors

FUTEK Custom Torque Sensors are engineered-to-order transducers built when standard catalog products cannot satisfy the mechanical interface, capacity, environmental rating, or signal output requirements of a specific application. Engineering services encompass full OEM customization: housing geometry and material, shaft diameter and keyway dimensions, flange bolt patterns, connector type and position, cable routing, IP sealing, and integrated signal conditioning electronics.

The customization process begins with a requirements review covering torque range, overload capacity, rotational speed (for rotary configurations), allowable cross-load, environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, ingress protection), mounting constraints, and output signal type. FUTEK’s engineering team then selects the appropriate torsion element geometry — flanged disc, shaft-through, hollow bore, or compact square — and strain gauge bridge configuration optimized for the target capacity and stiffness.

Custom torque sensors are available in both reaction (stationary, static/quasi-static measurement) and rotary (rotating shaft with slip rings or RF telemetry) configurations, and in single-axis or combined load/torque versions for applications requiring simultaneous measurement of axial force and torque on a single shaft. Capacities range from millinewton-meter precision instruments for miniature actuator characterization up to high-capacity sensors for large industrial drive systems.

OEM and high-volume customers can request application-specific calibration, custom labeling, and documentation packages. NewRoad provides FUTEK custom torque sensors in Israel for OEM machine builders, test system integrators, and industrial R&D laboratories requiring transducers that cannot be sourced from catalog.
