Innovative wireless weighing technology could help shipping operators meet amended Solas requirements…
Latchways has developed two different test rigs as part of its rigorous programme to confirm the quality of its fall arrest products. Both rigs use TorqSense transducers from Sensor Technology as the main means of measuring the critical test parameters.
Digital ORT 230/240 optical rotary torque sensors from Sensor Technology are designed for applications when the demand is for low torque and/or high bandwidth, providing precise, dynamic measurement of rotary and static torque less than 100Nm and for bandwidths of up to 50kHz.
New and developing technologies will be the theme on the Sensor Technology stand at Sensors & Instrumentation 2016.
Tony Ingham of Sensor Technology explains how monitoring the work rate of cranes, loaders and unloaders means their performance can be optimised, and downtime for maintenance can be scheduled for minimum disruption to operational requirements
Latest technologies from Sensor Technology include extensions to its LoadSense range, an updated version of its ORT 230/240 TorqSense range and enhancements to its wireless strain gauge amplifier.
An intelligent cargo hook has aided the heli-lifting of a golden statue of an angel onto the top of the spire at a church in rural Surrey.
The three months grace period on the amended Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) Regulations has now expired, and exporters are now required to verify the weight of packed shipping containers. Sensor Technology is able to provide a simple, retrofittable solution for SOLAS compliance.
Demonstrating that the electricity supply infrastructure can be developed more quickly and cost-effectively, Heli-Lift Services has pioneered the use of helicopters to remove and deliver poles and pylons in remote locations.
