What are torque meters?
How are torque meters used in industry?
Torque measuring devices are also of crucial importance in materials testing and in the aerospace industry. They help with the incoming goods inspection for fasteners. They also play a role in the calibration of tools such as torque wrenches to ensure accurate measurements or to check the machine capability of rotating tightening tools.
They are used in these industrial sectors:
Automotive industry
Mechanical engineering
Aerospace industry

Intelligent torque sensors
The intelligent torque sensors are precise and compact. With strain gauge-based technology and high-resolution incremental encoders, they enable precise rotation measurements, for example of industrial cordless screwdrivers. They offer versatile interfaces such as USB, Ethernet and RS-485, and some models have mechanical overload protection.
These sensors are supplied with power via the USB interface. The HST Torq Analyzer software enables the recording of torque/angle of rotation and torque/time curves as well as the display of speed over time. With an impressive sampling rate of 2,000 readings per second and the ability to set up two limit monitoring windows, they are ideal for demanding torque testing.
HST models in our range:
HST-TTS & eTTS
Torque Transducer Static (eTTS = economy version, small and very compact design): Static sensor, torque-time measurement

TT series
Digital torque meters from Mark-10
The TT (Torque Transducer) series of digital torque meters set new standards in measurement accuracy and versatility. They are easy to operate and are ideal for precise measurements in various industries, including high-precision measuring tasks in the pharmaceutical and food industries as well as for consumer goods and in the sports sector.
They capture rotational forces in both directions (CW and CCW) with an impressive sampling rate of 7,000 Hz, ensuring no important data is lost. These devices offer various interfaces for process data output and allow you to choose from five different units of measurement to suit your needs. Additional features such as breakage detection and memory for up to 1,000 readings with statistics make them the perfect choice for quality control.
The TT series also offers practical extras such as automatic measurement termination, display of set values and password protection for secure work processes. With integrated protection against overloads of up to 150 %, they are robust and reliable.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions and answers
Are the torque measuring devices really Made in Germany?
Yes! Our products are developed and manufactured in the Black Forest.
Are the torque measuring devices really the most precise sensors on the market?
Yes, our rotary sensors in particular use a special data processing technology that enables digital conversion of the analog signals directly on the rotating measuring shaft. In addition, optoelectronic data transmission is used to forward the data. This results in completely new application possibilities, lower losses, higher accuracies and a wider range of applications.
Do the torque measuring devices work without a display and evaluation unit?
Yes! The measured values are digitized in the sensor and can be transmitted directly via USB, Ethernet or serial. Your laptop or even cell phone can be used as a display. The data can be transferred directly to the system control and processed further if the sensors are integrated in a production system.
Is there a good price-performance ratio, despite leading technology?
Yes, we rely on the best advice, first-class products and long-term partnerships. We are not greedy for profit like some large companies.
Can the sensors be DAkkS-calibrated?
Yes, our technology has even been put through its paces by the PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt) in Braunschweig, where it was met with great enthusiasm.
What can I do if the sensors are defective?
You can send the sensors to our Service Center for repair at any time. Contact us for an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) at repaircenter@hs-technik.com or directly via our online RMA form.
How can I program the sensors?
Our Torq Analyzer software is available for this purpose. The sensors can be programmed or activated either via the software or via external control.
