McLaren Applied delivers first next-gen SAW torque sensing system
Electronics specialist McLaren Applied has delivered the first of its next-generation SAW (Surface Acoustic Wave) Torque Systems to an undisclosed motorsport client that will mandate the part across all entrants in its race series, which is due to switch to hybrid power in 2024.
The company notes that the new torque sensor is a non-contact measurement device based on SAW technology which enables small, lightweight, robust sensors which provide accurate wireless measurement. Each shaft is supplied with a calibration file and is actively thermally compensated over its operating temperature range, further improving precision.
