Rotation Sensor | IR Telemetrics

Robust, Versatile Rotation Sensor Technology

In several machine component systems, rotating pins, bushings, valves, and rollers are critical components.

In a Diesel Engine for example:

Piston Pins are designed to rotate inside the piston or rod to insure uniform wear over the life of the engine.
Rocker arm rollers are designed to stay in contact with valves and roll at steady state speeds.
Intake and exhaust vales are designed to rotate to provide uniform wear on the valve seats.

IR Telemetrics Proprietary Rotation Sensors

Measuring rotation relative to matting components is achieved using IRT's proprietary sensors and wireless telemetry technology. Our system can measure:

Angular value
Angular velocity
Angular acceleration
Direction of rotation
RPM of rotating component

Collecting Critical Data Leads to Improved Design Optimization

These Rotation Measuring Systems provide insight to lubrication and bearing design. By optimizing these factors, engineers can reduce losses and improve overall engine performance and efficiency.
