Miniature thru-hole flange-to-fange reaction torque cell
The Miniature Reaction Torque Sensor RTT15 is a compact, high-precision solution engineered for applications where space constraints and bidirectional torque measurement are critical. With an ultra-slim profile of just 16mm in height and a 12mm diameter central thru-hole, this sensor seamlessly integrates into tight installations, making it ideal for robotics, medical devices, small-scale automation, and precision testing equipment. Available in six rated capacities—0.2Nm, 0.5Nm, 1Nm, 2Nm, 5Nm, and 10Nm—the RTT15 delivers accurate reaction torque measurement in both clockwise (CW) and counterclockwise (CCW) directions, ensuring versatility across static and bidirectional load scenarios.
Designed as a static torque transducer, the RTT15 torque load cell employs a robust flange-to-flange structure, enabling straightforward installation between torque-generating units (e.g., motors, actuators) and load-bearing surfaces. Its miniature footprint eliminates the need for complex mounting setups, reducing system downtime and enhancing operational efficiency. The sensor's thru-hole design allows shafts or cabling to pass through its center, preserving space while maintaining measurement integrity—a key advantage in densely packed assemblies like robotic joints or compact industrial machinery. For seamless integration with data acquisition systems, the RTT15 pairs with an external amplifier to provide standardized analog outputs, including 0-5V, 0-10V, and 4-20mA signals. These outputs ensure compatibility with PLCs, controllers, and IoT-enabled monitoring platforms, enabling real-time torque feedback for quality control, performance optimization, and predictive maintenance. The absence of moving parts within the sensor enhances durability, ensuring maintenance-free operation even in high-cycle applications.
The RTT15 micro torque sensor is particularly suited for industries demanding precision in confined spaces. In robotics, it enables precise force feedback in grippers or articulated arms, while in medical devices, it ensures accurate torque control in surgical tools or drug delivery systems. Additionally, it supports torque verification in micro-motor testing, semiconductor manufacturing, and aerospace component validation. For specialized requirements, LCS offers full customization of the RTT15, including tailored dimensions, connectors, or signal outputs, making it a flexible choice for OEMs and bespoke engineering projects. Whether embedded in portable devices, integrated into automated production lines, or deployed in R&D labs, the RTT15 combines reliability with adaptability, empowering engineers to overcome spatial limitations without compromising on measurement accuracy.
