The concept of force and Power meter One of the main concepts of physics and the world around us, which according to the relevant formulas is related to acceleration and gravity. For example, to check the stability and strength of a bridge and the force applied to its components that heavy vehicles pass over, the amount of force applied to it should be measured. Measuring the forces acting on an object through sensors Neurosung will be done. In action for Force measurement For example, pulling a wire or a force applied to an object by one Power meter is used. In laboratory models, dynamometers are made mechanically from a spring and a hook, but in digital and advanced models, they are made from the same strain gauge and load cell sensors.
Types of dynamometers
Power meter Like other devices, they are divided into different categories. This division is divided into two types in terms of efficiency, appearance and amount of power. In one of the divisions, they are divided into two types: hand and digital:
Hand-held dynamometers (analog dynamometers)
Hand dynamometers are designed for manual use. Usually hand dynamometers are used for the initial stress and compression test when the accuracy of the test is not very important. Hand-held dynamometers are usually capable of holding and converting a unit to a tensile head on one side and a compression head on the other. These types of dynamometers are less expensive than digital dynamometers.
Digital dynamometers
Digital dynamometers They are basically handheld devices that include a load cell (sensor), electrical part, screen and software and have high accuracy.
Types of digital dynamometers
The design of digital dynamometers is in the form of sensors inside and outside the device. In the first type, the sensor that is used to measure the force is installed inside the device, and in the second type, the sensor is outside the device, and more for high capacities. Is used.
1- Digital dynamometer below 1000 Newtons
In this type of dynamometers, a load cell (weight indicator) is installed inside the device. .
2. Digital dynamometer above 1000 Newtons
In this type of dynamometers, a load cell (weight indicator) is installed outside the device.
A load cell is an electrical device that converts power into an electrical signal through a stern gauge. The software and the electrical part of the dynamometer convert the load cell voltage into the equivalent amount of force.
Application of dynamometers
Power meters are one of the most widely used devices in various power plant industries.
Laboratory, Automotive and Inspection are used for laboratory purposes, product quality control, design and engineering units, research units and science and technology parks, automotive industries, power plants and..
