Force & Hardness Standard
Force and Hardness Standards
The Dead weight force machine in the range 5-50 N developed earlier was extended to a lower range of 1 N using a specially designed hanger made from aluminium alloy. This fully automated machine has been characterised in the range 1 to 20N using 2N, 3N, 5N, 10N and 20N force transducers and typical calibration results are shown in Fig.
