Increasing demand for ever-higher nominal torque valuesby the example of a marine application

摘要

The world's steadily growing energy needs combined with increasing requirements on machines and drive systems in terms of economical use of resources and protection of the environment demand innovative technologies for running such systems. Power and efficiency are the main parameters of machines and drive systems. Driven by the need to increase efficiency and by international emission regulations, highly accurate and reliable torque measurement in both test bench applications and the monitoring of ships at sea are of high interest to ship's engine (marine) technology.
