  • Page 3 ● For the entire system to function safely when the TM500 becomes faulty or malfunctions, provide a safety circuit outside the TM500. ● Before using the TM500 as described below, make sure to consult with our sales personnel. - Use in environments not described in the operation manual.
  • Page 4 - Do not wipe with a wet rag, or with benzine, thinner, alcohol, etc. Doing so may cause discoloration or deformation of the TM500. In the case of heavy contamination, wipe off the contamination with a cloth after dipping it into a diluted neutral detergent and wringing...
  • Page 5 Caution during transportation ● When the TM500 is shipped, spacers made of corrugated cardboard are used as cushioning materials. Though it is factory-designed so that shocks can sufficiently be absorbed, breakage may result if shocks are applied when the spacers are reused for transportation.

    1-2. Features TM500 is a torque monitor that enables waveform display of changes in torque with respect to displacement (mainly angles), combined with UTMⅡ series with optional rotary encoder. Changes in torque that are hard to grasp numerically can be grasped visually on waveform display.
  • Page 11 1　OUTLINE ● Drawing of torque-angle waveforms Waveforms of torque with respect to angles at low rotation, linear motion application can be Chapter drawn. Load Time ● Repetitive drawing of waveforms For applications with large fluctuation or low repeatability, inspection can be repeated several times for judgment.
  • Page 12 1　OUTLINE ● Control of the position at the measurement completion The position of the measurement completion can be judged by using the End Displacement for Chapter the Use Hold. The End Displacement is different from other hold types, so it judges not based on a wave starting point but based on an original point of the displacement.
