Abstract

The present paper describes the intercomparison realized in June 2004 in order to evaluate the main metrological characteristics of the PTB 2 MN standard deadweight machine by using the 500 kN INRIM six-component dynamometer. The main results (side components, bending and twisting moments) are reported, which indicate that they are of a very low level. Measurements of the dynamic components during weight changes and free suspension of the system are also presented.
