Digital Dynamometer
Definition
‘Digital dynamometer’ is the term most buyers use when searching for an electronic force measurement instrument online. It is used interchangeably with ‘electronic dynamometer’ in purchasing contexts. Understanding what a buyer means when they search this term is important: they are typically evaluating whether to move from a mechanical dial instrument to an electronic one — because their application requires digital data output, their documentation requirements have changed, or they need finer resolution than a mechanical dial provides. In the Dillon product line, the two digital dynamometer families are the EDJR and EDxtreme. The EDJR is the right choice when digital readout and calibration documentation are required but wireless data and logging are not. The EDxtreme is the choice when the application requires wireless data transmission, real-time remote monitoring, data logging, or high-capacity configurations up to 550,000 lb.

How Dynamic Measurement Uses It
Dynamic Measurement Systems carries both Dillon digital dynamometer lines. The EDJR accounts for approximately 23% of total worldwide Dillon sales; the EDxtreme accounts for approximately 12% — together roughly 35% of all Dillon unit volume. DMS's technical staff helps buyers determine which digital dynamometer fits their specific application, documentation requirements, and budget — a service that commodity online retailers cannot replicate.
