The ROBA-DSM is designed to be used in test stands, production machinery and applications where condition monitoring is required. The output from the DSM allows the machine manufacturer or end user to optimise their application or prevent damage and costly downtime by detecting overloads.

The ROBA-DSM is easy to install and robust in operation with simple PC connection (via USB) and graphical output of torque over time. The unit is a bearing free design that is rugged enough to resist water spray and machine vibrations whilst recording 7,000 measurements/second at temperatures from -20 to +70°C.

With four standard sizes and a wide range of hub clamping options from the ROBA-DS range, the ROBA-DSM can be installed between shafts ranging from 20mm to 100mm in diameter and it can handle a peak torque of up to 4,800Nm.
