METROLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF A HEXAPOD FOR A MULTI-COMPONENT CALIBRATION DEVICE

Dirk Röske

Abstract

A newly developed measuring device allows the generation and measurement of arbitrarily directed forces and moments. This device consists of a driving unit for generating the loads and a measuring unit for the accurate measurement of the acting components. Both units are realized as hexapod structures with the same geometry but mirrored arrangement. This paper describes the metrological characterization of the hexapods of this multi-component measuring device.
