TRUMMETER® Belt Tension Meter

The TRUMMETER belt tension meter from Hilger & Kern Industrietechnik measures belt tension through vibration frequency analysis, providing readings in both Hertz (frequency) and Newton (tensile force) directly on the device display.

The measurement process involves switching on the unit, illuminating the belt, and inducing vibration to obtain tension values.

Proper belt tensioning extends belt service life and reduces premature wear on associated rolling bearings and wheels.

The device supports documentation requirements for quality management systems compliant with DIN EN ISO 9001 and related standards, enabling verifiable logging during machine commissioning and routine inspection intervals.

This tool is suited for maintenance teams and integrators working with belt-driven conveyors, linear actuators, and power transmission systems where precise tension control affects system reliability and component longevity.
