INFLUENCE OF SPECIFIC PARAMETERS ON A HAND-OPERATED TORQUE STANDARD MACHINE

Rafael S. Oliveira, Rodrigo F. Guilherme, Luiz C. Cabral

Abstract

In a hand-operated torque primary standard machine, many parameters are very peculiar and can really influence the final results of a calibration. The paper presents studies to quantify how those parameters act and be able to influence on the main operations of this type of machine. As a conclusion, it is demonstrated that only an initial characterisation of the system is not enough to guarantee good results but, the day-by-day use of the machine demands for practice and better knowledge of the cited parameters.
