With tailor-made test setups and neatly integrated measurement technology, you can ensure reproducible results and stable processes. Our engineering team supports you from the initial requirements through to design and commissioning – including documentation and training.
Test setups, adapters, and integration –
from a single source
We plan, design, and integrate test setups for tension, compression, and torque
– including sensors, signal routing, software, and handover documentation. This gives you reproducible measurement results and stable processes.
Why choose DISA for engineering?
- Specialized in force and torque: Mechanics, sensors, electronics, and evaluation from a single source.
- Practical & audit-proof: Designs and test concepts that meet standard/QA requirements.
- Fast implementation: Lean project paths, clear timelines – from concept to ready-to-use setup.
- Compatible with your infrastructure: Integration into existing test benches, control systems, and software.
- Documented & ready for handover: Drawings, parts lists, test/acceptance reports, operating instructions.
Our services
Test setups & test benches
Design, calculation, and construction for tension/compression and torque – from tabletop setups to production or laboratory test benches, including safety and operator ergonomics.
Adapters, mounts & fixtures
Force/torque-compatible adapters, mounts, couplings, and clamps for low-error force transmission and repeatable positioning.
Sensors & signal routing
Selection/integration of force and torque sensors, measuring chains, amplifiers, and data acquisition. Cable routing, shielding, EMC-compliant design.
Software & evaluation
Setup of measurement/evaluation software (recording, triggers, filters, characteristic curves, reports), interfaces to QA/ERP/MES as required.
Retrofit & optimization
Retrofitting of existing systems, redesign of weak points, increasing repeatability and measurement accuracy, reducing setup times.
Prototypes & small series
On request, we also take on the production of prototypes, small series, and preparation for series production – in cooperation with our device manufacturing department.
Project process & lead time
- Requirements & specifications – Objective, measuring range(s), test object, standards/regulations, environmental conditions
- Concept & offer – Sketches/layouts, technical solution, time and cost framework
- Design & procurement – 3D/2D design, parts lists, manufacturing/components
- Assembly & commissioning – Setup, sensor/signal integration, function and safety check
- Acceptance & documentation – Protocols, operating instructions, optional training/handover
Suitable tasks
