Foundation drilling rigs are machines used in construction projects, specifically to drill deep holes or shafts into the ground. They create foundations to support and stabilise structures by anchoring them into the earth. Torque must be monitored and tested on the drill bit to ensure its functionality, but also for safety – especially in tough ground conditions.
Our torque transducer, customised for rugged environments, ensured proper functionality and safety of the foundation drilling rig.
Interface suggests attaching a TS11 Flange Style Reaction Torque Transducer customised for rugged environments in between the auger and the shaft of the foundation drilling rig. When connected to the WTS-AM-1E Wireless Strain Bridge Transmitter Module, torque results are wirelessly transmitted to the customer’s computer using the WTS-BS-6 Wireless Telemetry Dongle Base Station with supplied Log100 software. Results can also be transmitted to the WTS-BS-1-HS Wireless Handheld Display for Single Transmitters.
Interface’s TS11 Flange Style Reaction Torque Transducer was customised for rugged environments, and successfully measured the torque of the foundation drilling rig, ensuring it is functioning properly.
