NOn-contact measureing systems Customized technology from Melectric
Melectric is the only manufacturer on the market to offer three innovative technologies for non-contact measuring systems. These include torque measurement based on the magnetoelastic effect, non-contact measurement using near-field telemetry and radio-based measuring systems. Our aim is to develop customized solutions for your individual measuring tasks – from research and development to cost-efficient series solutions

- Use our device with several sensors as strain gauges, acceleration, temperature or others.
Wide spectrum of possible applications
Our solution enables precise measurements to be taken within a high torque range, from 1 Nm to several thousand Nm. As no additional components are applied to the shaft itself, it is possible to take measurements at rotation speeds of up to 300,000 rpm. The measurement accuracy is typically 1% FS and the signal bandwidth is usually 1 to 2 kHz, but can be increased to over 25 kHz for customer-specific applications. In addition, the evaluation electronics makes it possible to measure additional data, such as temperature, acceleration, and rotation speed. MELECTRIC offers many different options in terms of both analogue and digital output signals (0-5 V, 0-10 V, 4-20 mA, CAN BUS, I2C, UART, Bluetooth,…).
A maintenance-free alternative to conventional torque measurement
The system is completely wear-free as a result of the contactless torque measurement. Even in the event of strong vibrations, impacts, weather effects and temperature fluctuations, it continues to deliver precise and reliable data, demonstrating that magnetoelastic torque measurement is both a robust and affordable alternative to mechanical torque measurement.
Angular misalignment | Strain gauges | Magnetic (Melectric) | |
---|---|---|---|
Contactless | Yes, but a measurement can only be taken when the shaft is rotating | No, or only with the aid of technical equipment, such as telemetry or slip rings | Yes, without limitations |
Rigidity | Very “soft” or elastic shaft required – problematic for dynamic control processes or applications that are sensitive to resonance | Limited (dependent on torsional strain). The emission of signals in the frequency spectrum over 1.5 kHz is impeded | Very wide range of measurement body rigidities possible |
Size | Length:diameter ratio of around 5:1 required = long axial design | Inductive power supply and telemetry impede installation and require large application surfaces with respect to the measuring shaft | Minimal installation space: axial shaft lengths < 20 mm; radial installation space for the electronics = 5 mm. High degree of flexibility in design of housing and shaft |
System run-time/signal bandwidth | Typically up to 0.5 kHz | Typically up to 1.5 kHz | Typically 1 – 2 kHz Special applications up to 25 kHz |
Can be installed radially | No | No | Yes |
Long-term stability | Yes | The bonded areas of the strain gauges can cause problems, especially if affected by the temperature | Yes |
