AMTI's model BOLT-3 transducer is a unique instrument that simultaneously measures the torque applied to a bolt and the torque at the threads as well as the axial tension in the bolt. In isolating these three values, the BOLT-3 enables a detailed study of the loading on a bolted element. This provides data for the effect of material, pitch size, thread form, lubricants and contact pressure on the element.
Both self-locking inserts and self-locking threads as well as thread-locking compounds can be examined. The BOLT-3 also measures the thrust characteristics and torque of lead screws.

Dynisco draw upon 60 years of pressure sensor expertise as their core technology to design and manufacture their comprehensive range of rugged melt pressure sensors that are specially designed for the harsh environments of the polymer processing and extrusion industries.
Many of the Dynisco pressure transmitters and transducers have built-in temperature sensors that allow absolute (rather than software) temperature compensation, which reduces pressure-reading drift caused by ambient and process temperature changes. The field-proven diaphragms in Dynisco melt pressure transducers and transmitters can be protected from corrosion and abrasion by their proprietary DYMAX coating.
Products can be customised to your exact specification, including choice of diaphragm materials and different port configurations and process connections.
|
|
Due to the close interrelation between pressure and temperature, accurate temperature measurement is vital in the polymer processing and extrusion industry. Dynisco products ensure consistency and quality by maintaining a delicate balance between the two variables.
Dynisco temperature sensors can be used as stand-alone units or in conjunction with Dynisco or other pressure sensors. They can also be connected to a Distributed Control System (DCS) for optimised process control, or integrated with the Dynisco modular OPT-TROL Melt Control System for complete polymer melt control throughout the extrusion line.
