Abstract

A deadweight force standard machine is a mechanical structure that generates force by subjecting deadweights to the local gravitational field. Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) maintains several deadweight force machines for national force standards. KRISS is developing a 1 MN deadweight force standard machine. The project is scheduled to be finished in 2015. This paper describes the concept and structure of the force machine. The manufacturing and installation of the force machine are also described in this paper.
