Abstract
In drive technology, timing belts and transmission belts are used to transmit large forces at large distances. Optimal power transmission depends on the belt tension. Consistently perfect belt tension increases service life and reduces wear. This ensures consistent quality and technical safety in the respective application. This article describes a silicon strain sensor and the necessary connection technology to enable continuous determination of the belt tension.
