Is there a method of measuring the torque output of a DC motor, using constants given in a motor's data sheet? I know the data sheet tells you how much torque the motor will put out at a given current input, but I'd like to be able to measure torque without an expensive torque transducer. Couldn't I have the motor in question drive another motor of known characteristics and then measure voltage/current of the known motor, then convert voltage/current to a torque?
