Tractor Power Take-Off Torque Measurement And Data Acquisition System, James B. W. Roeber, Santosh K. Pitla, R. M. Hoy, J. D. Luck, Michael F. Kocher
Tractor Power Take-Off Torque Measurement And Data Acquisition System, James B. W. Roeber, Santosh K. Pitla, R. M. Hoy, J. D. Luck, Michael F. Kocher
Biological Systems Engineering: Papers and Publications
With the mechanization of agricultural operations, agricultural machinery management has become an extensive research field. Sizing tractors and implements to provide the most efficient power transfer has become an ongoing process with advances in technology. Utilization of the rotational power transferred through gear trains from the tractor engine to the power take-off (PTO) shaft is one of the most efficient methods of power transfer to an implement. This research used commercially available torque sensors that were installed on a tractor PTO shaft for measuring the torque delivered to an implement. The torque sensor was calibrated using the Nebraska Tractor Test …
