- Abstract:
- Calibration machines up to a torque range of 20 kN·m need extensive design if the force is performed by dead weights. A machine based on two force reference standards and a vertical torque axis may serve to avoid these specific problems. The precision force transducers work at a lever arm of precision length. The test piece is mounted in vertical arrangement between a hydraulically operating rotary-actuator and the torque measuring system. Such a calibration machine allows additionally performing easily continuous calibration. Regarding an overall relative uncertainty not greater than 2·10-4 there are some significant problems. The estimation of the uncertainty has been proved by comparative tests with the national torque standard by the PTB according to the guidelines EA-10/14 and EA-2/03.
