COMBINED CALIBRATION IN FORCE AND TORQUE

P. Hohmann

Abstract

A combination of both quantities force and torque together are often necessary. Some examples are given in testing ship propellers, or in case of fixing screws. Also in elastic axle bearings both quantities are working and both should be measured while happened together. The measurement equipment in the test rigs should be traceable. Therefore a transfer measurement equipment is needed which is calibrated by similar procedure as it is used.
