Beam Apparatus- Engineering Lab Training Systems.
Technical Description.
The benchtop unit consists of a strong
aluminium section frame to which all experiment components can be
attached rapidly and precisely. Beam specimens of varying thickness made
of different materials demonstrate the effect of geometry and the
modulus of elasticity on deflection. Loading is applied using sets of
weights and the beam deformation measured using measurement gauges. The
forces are determined using dynamometers integrated into the bearings.
These have large scales that are also easy to read from a distance. The
scales can be rotated for zeroing. The height of the bearings can be
adjusted using threaded spindles. The height of the measurement gauges
in their holders is adjustable.
