DMS application on control arm with APT protection

Strain Gauge Application: Robust solutions for demanding measurements

We apply high-quality strain gauges (DMS) precisely to your components (e.g. tie rods, control arms) for reliable force and strain measurements under real-world conditions.

Our applications are protected by the innovative AXON APT (Adaptive Protection Technology) – an exceptionally durable, multi-layer protective enclosure.

AXON APT Protection Technology

The multi-layer fiberglass structure with elastic interlayers shields the DMS from external influences and mechanical stress without affecting the measurement.

Extremely Rugged: APT protection against oil, water, and debris (up to 160 °C)
Long-Term Stability: Reliable data even under continuous stress
Realistic Testing: Measurements without modifying the component
Precise Force Measurement: Direct capture at the source

Torque Measurement on Driveshafts

Rotating driveshaft components face extreme conditions — oil, water, vibration, and temperature. Conventional slip-ring or cable-based systems fail or require constant maintenance. AXON's contactless telemetry solves this with strain gauges bonded directly to the shaft, transmitting data wirelessly via inductive coupling.

Torque is the central reference parameter for load spectra, fatigue analysis, and efficiency optimization. AXON systems deliver 16-bit resolution digital measurement, enabling continuous real-time monitoring directly on the rotating component.

Operating Principle

Strain gauges on the shaft capture torsion. A telemetry transmitter converts the signal into a digital radio transmission, transferred contactlessly via inductive coupling to the stationary receiver.

Maintenance-free: Contactless transmission without wear parts
Oil & water resistant: Operation under real driving conditions
Temperature stable: Reliable measurement from −40 °C to +150 °C
16-bit resolution: High-precision digital torque acquisition
Long transmission distances: Up to 80 mm air gap
CAN bus connectivity: Direct integration into vehicle and test bench networks
