BEI Technologies, Inc. Announces New iTorq Sensing Solution with
Hydradyne Hydraulics LLC SAN FRANCISCO, June 3
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BEI Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:BEIQ) is
pleased to announce that BEI's Duncan Electronics Division has
accepted an order to develop an advanced torque sensing solution
with Hydradyne Hydraulics LLC Aerospace Systems Group. The new
torque sensor will be used in Hydradyne's helicopter transmission
test stands that test the main gearbox, tail rotor gearbox and
intermediate gearbox to a dynamic load test of up to 5,000
horsepower. This is the first application of iTorq, a proprietary
sensing technology that was licensed by BEI approximately six
months ago. iTorq is a stress sensing technology that is ideally
suited to this application and provides a solution where no other
sensing technique has been successful. This test stand application
takes full advantage of key non-contacting attributes to deliver a
high resolution, dynamic torque reading from an existing input
shaft that is typically operating above 20,000 rpm. Development of
this sensor will begin immediately with production units shipping
by the early fall of 2005. Hydradyne Hydraulics is a premier
supplier of FAA certified multi-purpose test benches. Large
helicopter transmissions have an unusually high speed input/output
configuration and require full load dynamic testing prior to being
approved for flight use. Hydradyne's test benches are manufactured
with a hydraulic energy absorbing bootstrap loading system because
of its simplicity, controllability, reliability and overall size.
BEI Technologies, Inc. (the "Company" or "Technologies") is an
established manufacturer of electronic sensors, motors, actuators,
rotary optical encoders, linear encoders with associated digital
readouts (DROs), and motion control products used for factory and
office automation, medical equipment, military, aviation and space
systems. In addition, sales to manufacturers of transportation
equipment, including automobiles, trucks and off-road equipment,
have become a significant addition to the Company's business in
recent years. The Company's micromachined quartz rate sensors are
being used in advanced vehicle stability control systems and a
significant increase in the production of those sensors had been in
progress from the middle of 1998 to fiscal year 2005 except for a
decrease in production in fiscal 2002 due to increased competition.
The Company also manufactures electronic steering wheel position
sensors, seat-memory modules, throttle position sensors, inertial
navigation systems, and other devices used in transportation
systems. DATASOURCE: BEI Technologies, Inc. CONTACT: John LaBoskey,
