Description

The DTD-P parallel shaft reaction torque transducer / reaction torque transducer series have keyed parallel shaft connections for in-line direct drive measurements. Applications include the testing of electrical motors, hydraulic pumps, automotive transmissions, steering systems and aircraft actuators.

We are able to offer custom shaft sizes and configurations to suit your application if required.  Request pricing from our technical sales team.

We chose the DTD-P torque transducer for its high accuracy and compact size which we needed for tank testing the SeaPower Platform.
