Standard Practice for Torque Calibration of Testing Machines

Importancia y uso:

4.1 Testing machines that apply and indicate torque are used in many industries, in many ways. They may be used in a research laboratory to measure material properties, and in a production line to qualify a product for shipment. No matter what the end use of the machine may be, it is necessary for users to know the amount of torque that is applied, and that the accuracy of the torque value is traceable to the SI. This standard provides a procedure to verify these machines and devices, in order that the indicated torque values may be traceable. A key element to having metrological traceability is that the devices used in the calibration produce known torque characteristics, and have been calibrated in accordance with Practice E2428.

4.2 This standard may be used by those using, those manufacturing, and those providing calibration service for torque capable testing machines or devices and related instrumentation.
