Strain gauges are bonded to the torque sensor's shaft or structural element. When torque is applied, it creates torsional strain that deforms the gauge, changing its electrical resistance proportionally to the torque value, which is then converted to an electrical signal.
Strain gauges require minimal maintenance but need protection from moisture, chemicals, and mechanical damage. Regular calibration checks and inspection of bonding integrity are recommended to ensure measurement accuracy.
Yes, individual strain gauges can be replaced, but this requires careful surface preparation, precise bonding, and recalibration. Complete torque sensor replacement is often more cost-effective for damaged gauges.
