Abstract

This paper describes the practical application of method B of the ISO 4965-1 standard for the dynamic force calibration of a fatigue test machine. The experiment focuses on detailing the main proceedings involved such as the load series, the frequency sweep range and the data acquisition and processing parameters applied to the Dynamic Calibration Devices (DCDs), used with different compliances. The calibration results are shown and a discussion is proposed.
