In industrial sectors, precision, safety, and reliability are crucial.
AUREL has developed the AxialSense sensor, designed for direct measurement of axial force in bolted joints. This specialised sensor delivers real-time, highly accurate data on bolt preload and enables evaluation of load effects depending on the type of stress or environmental conditions.
A versatile solution for development and production
The AxialSense sensor can be easily integrated into detachable joints of mechanical equipment (bolts, studs, or general force elements). It is suitable both for development, during component testing, and for series production. In production, it ensures product quality, increases process safety, extends machine lifetime, and supports sustainability efforts with respect to environmental protection.
Prevention of leaks and failures
By monitoring the forces acting on fastening components, the AxialSense sensor can detect a drop in preload early on, which could subsequently cause leaks in piping systems. This allows operators to prevent leaks of transported media and avoid costly unplanned shutdowns or emergency incidents.
Integrating the AxialSense sensor into maintenance plans increases the reliability of production equipment and enables service intervals to be scheduled based on actual condition rather than fixed timelines.
Comprehensive insights gathered through long-term data collection with the AxialSense sensor help optimise component performance, extend service life, and ensure safe operation.
Resistance in extreme conditions
Each AxialSense sensor is engineered for reliable operation under load and in the environment specified by the customer. When placing an order, the customer can define the installation size, measuring range, and operating conditions (temperature, pressure, humidity, explosiveness, etc.) to ensure the sensor fully meets their requirements and technical specifications.
AUREL’s modern technologies
The AxialSense sensor is another example of how AUREL combines advanced technology with the real needs of various industries. The company develops its own innovative solutions not only for automotive, but also for industrial operations, mechanical engineering, aerospace, and forensics. Other successful devices developed by AUREL include:
- TorqGuardPro – a sensor for precise torque measurement in industrial quarter-turn systems,
- ForeScan3D – a device for detailed scanning of human body structures, primarily designed for forensic analysis.
For AUREL, the key development principles are:
- Safety – protecting infrastructure and personnel,
- Durability – components you can rely on,
- Modern technology – accessible to a wide range of customers,
- Sustainability – minimizing environmental impact.
The AxialSense sensor is more than just a force sensor – it is a powerful, comprehensive tool that supports data-driven decisions, enhances operational safety and system reliability, and promotes sustainable performance.
