Hydraulic Force Standard Machine

Technical Data

  • Capacities: 50 kN to 5 MN
  • Measuring range: 0.1 % to 100 %
  • Measuring uncertainty: ≤ 0.1 %
By application of the combined experiences with the areas of force standard machines and force transfer standards GTM has created a series of calibration machines which sets new benchmarks for force reference standards in terms of measuring uncertainty and economy.
For capacities of 50 kN up to 5 MN machine designs are available which are tailored for the practical aspects of day-to-day calibration work. Measuring ranges of up to 1:100 are possible with a single reference transducer. With two reference transducers forces from 0.1 % to 100 % of capacity can be applied. As usual the operation is PC controlled and almost entirely automated, including the data acquisition and processing.

Technical Description

The machines consist of a robust base frame, a two-column load frame with tension and compression test space, one or more reference force transducers (GTM KTN-D) and a hydraulic system for force generation. As an option, a PC-based data acquisition system is available.
