Industrial process control is increasingly demanding handwheels that combine mechanical operation with digital intelligence.
Industrial process control is increasingly demanding handwheels that combine mechanical operation with digital intelligence. A leading industrial components supplier has launched a new generation of smart feedback temperature control handwheels, integrating torque sensing technology and digital display to improve operational precision and process stability.
The handwheel features a built-in torque sensor that detects the operator’s adjustment force in real time, providing feedback via a small LCD screen on the handwheel. This function prevents over-adjustment and ensures temperature parameters are set accurately (±0.05℃). The handwheel’s digital display shows the current temperature setting and actual process temperature, eliminating the need for separate monitoring devices. Crafted from wear-resistant PPS plastic and stainless steel, it offers excellent durability and corrosion resistance.
In an automotive parts factory in Germany, the handwheels were installed on plastic injection molding machines, reducing temperature fluctuation by 30% and improving product consistency. The product is compatible with major industrial control systems (Siemens, Allen-Bradley) and supports customization of torque sensitivity and display units. Market research shows that the global smart handwheel market will grow at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2026 to 2030, driven by the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies in manufacturing.
