Motor Torque Measurement System Torque Station Pro
TS-8700

Left side: MT series detector Right side: Torque Station Pro TS-8700

The Torque Station Pro TS-8700 is a motor fundamental characteristic measurement system that significantly improves specifications and functions. Combined with the MT-type motor torque detector equipped with a TH-type torque detector, it enables high-precision and high-response motor torque measurements with a maximum sampling rate of 5.12 kHz and an accuracy of ±0.1% FS. Additionally, a lineup featuring the compact, high-rigidity RH series torque detectors (10 N·m / 20 N·m) has been added, allowing for even higher precision (±0.05% FS) motor torque measurements. This system is ideal for measuring torque fluctuations in automotive motors such as EPS motors.

Features

A rich lineup compatible with various motors

It is equipped with a switching function for motor torque detectors, supporting standard 2 channels and up to 4 channels optionally.
Additionally, a wide range of MT series detectors is available for the TS-8700, accommodating various motor characteristic measurements.
There are three series of detectors available for high-speed motors, large-capacity motors, and torque ripple/cogging torque measurements, with a total of 58 models to choose from based on application.

High precision and high responsiveness

When combined with the MT detector equipped with a TH-type torque detector, the torque measurement accuracy is ±0.1% FS, and it is capable of a maximum sampling frequency of 5.12 kHz.

Additionally, we have newly supported the small high-rigidity torque detector of the RH type. The RH type torque detector (10 N·m / 20 N·m) achieves high precision (±0.05% FS) and high rigidity (4.5 times that of conventional models), enabling the measurement of motor torque fluctuations with greater accuracy and at higher frequency ranges.

Temperature measurement, temperature trigger function

The T-type thermocouple now supports an 8-channel temperature measurement and temperature trigger function as an option. This allows for automatic measurement to start after warm-up, thereby improving work efficiency.

Rotation angle measurement, rotation angle sampling

Rotation angle measurement and angle sampling measurement are possible using the built-in encoder pulses of the motor under test.
Furthermore, by adding an optional encoder to the MT-82 M/T/R series (with some exceptions) for cogging torque and torque ripple measurement, rotation angle measurement and angle sampling measurement in 0.1° increments become possible.

Power meter digital communication

You can connect to power meters from other companies via LAN and capture measurement values digitally.
There are five models of power meters specified by our company:

Yokogawa Electric Corporation: WT1800R, WT1800E, WT300E (using WTViewerEfree*1 Ver1.72 or later)
Hioki E.E. Corporation: PW3390, PW3337 (using PW Communicator*2 Ver1.7.0 or later)
PW8001 (set via main unit key or browser. No dedicated software required
*Note: The data update interval for TS-8700 is limited to a maximum of 50 ms
TS-8700 requires DSP ver.201 or higher, software ver.2.2.0.0 or higher
Please contact us for compatibility with existing devices)

Frame and Jig Selectable Equipment Configuration

You can configure the equipment by selecting from tabletop stands, caster-equipped floor stands, XYZ stages, slide bases, V blocks, and L-shaped jigs according to the size of the test specimen and the installation location. However, there are selection restrictions based on the torque capacity of each series.
