MagCanica has developed a proprietary flux-gate magnetometer construction, and pioneers the combination of cutting-edge electronics, electronics packaging, and firmware in the torque-sensor market. With patented systems and methods that enable us to extract the highest possible accuracy from magnetoelastic torque sensors, we continue to push the limit of the technology, incorporate new enabling technologies into our sensors, and expect this to result in significant benefits in the future as well. These benefits include increased accuracy, ease-of-use, and further insensitivity to temperature, displacement, and the influence of external magnetic fields and interference.
For energy sector and industrial applications wherein the accuracy requirements are not as stringent or a legacy data acquisition system does not accept a digital output signal from the torquemeter, MagCanica offers the Mil-Spec certified SCM-AE (Signal Conditioning Module – Aerospace). This module is fully analog, and offers two independent channels with a 4 to 20mA style output. It has been used for numerous VFD electric motor driven trains and is currently used on commercial land-based turboshaft-engine based fracking pump applications.
For those energy or industrial applications requiring higher accuracy levels and/or formal ATEX certification, embedded solutions or different configurations including explosion-proof protection or MagCanica’s proprietary accuracy enhancement capabilities are also available upon request, wherein specific digital signal output requirements and/or ATEX hardening requirements would be specifically addressed.
